Remove the manifold to quickly change the filter... what in gods name is going on here. And I thought pulling off my filter directly above the alternator on my 86 300ZX was dumb, wth! At least these guys thought of this and improved the nightmare situation with this beautiful looking part!
To make conservatively ~20hp/~10tq in the process of bulletproofing is fantastic - this mod would be worth the reduction in stress on the engine alone.
you know price on this thing is $4300 right? I mean its worth it if you need it, if you're actually being limited by the factory part. but thats a hefty price tag for just 20hp and a little stress reduction...
@@boblast5582 It actually opens up a lot more features such as included port injection and ability to control cylinder spray if running nitrous / meth. You're getting a lot of features included with this manifold that make it a great value when comparing all of the different features bundled together.
@@CSFracing yeah, absolutely. Thats why I said if you actually need something like this or if the oem intake mani is limiting you, this is a great part. but if you wanna get this just for the 20hp gain a little less stress on the engine, not really worth the price for that...
It’s a real problem with the power fade due to heat soak and man if you have the cash it’s definitely worth it to gain that consistency in performance curve with more extraneous environmental contributors.
WOW that thing is cool! The tune isn't optimized so it has power to make still! With support for MPFI and nitrous, the manifold making power is just extra. I didn't catch the IAT difference but those gains can't all be from increased density. Impressive they improved flow and density maintaining that packaging!
Man I had no idea the new Supra's cooling system was so interesting. I just assumed it had some air to air front mount. This aluminum piece is beautiful!
Looks like a great product for this engine when looking for more performance, not sure it makes sense for me yet but I will have this on my watchlist going forward.
Great review, but overly conservative showing the hp/tq curves when thermally stabilized after 20-30 pulls every 30 seconds. I think that relates to track events with a lot of tight corners, not street driving. I remember shopping for intercoolers, and at Corky Bell's site, the data on those bar & plate A/L intercooler cores at high HP ratings had less than 1 psi pressure drop ! Early A/L kits were flawed by using high pressure oil coolers up front, later VW Scirroco radiators were a popular up grade.
@@motoiq Understood, but who wants to know the power gain after 18-20 back to back dyno runs? Great point about the the low dp with the new bar & plate core, reducing compresser outlet temp and likely pressure ratio on stock turbo, landing on a more effcient map island.
Does it have a bolt on lid to change the core? It looks like the lid is tigged on. That's a problem for me. If I get a core leak and I have to buy a new intake, I'm seriously pissed. Besides that I can't stand the new BMW 500ml cylinder with the same bore and stroke for everything they make. It's just a cookie cutter engine for no horsepower and big horsepower depending on the bolt ons from the factory. It's a straight emissions design with cam timing and direct injection used to make the different power levels. Frackin i8 has a half a Supra motor.
Bore and stroke are different for s55, b58, and s58. There's actually lots of bottom and top end hardware differences between the newer platforms, so not as cookie cutter as it seems
@@scottb4104 The 55 is an older platform. The 58 is modular like all new platforms for most OEs. All small bore stuff is the main factor. Big bore, short stroke is the key to ultra high performance. Small bore is the key to ultra efficiency.
pretty sure that oil filter thing is an everybody thing. Kinda the opposite of what Ravi said, I can only imagine race teams buying these if removing the manifold was required for an oil filter change.
@@boblast5582 No idea but it’s a terrible design from EOS. I was waiting for either CSF or AMS manifold but I like the CSF one more so I bought that one. Hopefully AMS design allows for oil filter change without removing manifold which I’m sure it will.
