Custom built Intake manifold! Need help =)

[mx-3_4evr]

I was searching through Cardomain and found this guy that had made his own intake manifold.....I was wondering if the throttle body from the mustang will hook up to the stock mx-3 throttle body position sensor? he is using the 65mm 5.0 one. If it doesn't, than witch throttle body can I use? I'm kind of a noob when it comes to electrical/ecu & sensor stuff Here are the pics!

You can go to my cardomain page (cardomain.com/id/dsm_4evr) look through my friends list untill you find him. I'm going to built it myself....I just need more backround to get it right maybe if I can make a few I can sell you one! Damn! velocity satcks are expensive! does anybody knows where I can get velocity stacks that are not very expensive? lol

i would like 1 of those 4 my 95 Protege

that intake manifold is not as good as the stocker! it would be nice in the boosted aplication but not the NA form.
if you want to build one or start from somewhere get a stock 1.9L escort intake. it have very nice aluminum runners. with some work would be great for a bp. the plenum is not good but it can be hacked off.

Not to be a jerk, but you may want to go create your own thread with these questions in the BHA Protege section since this thread is more closely related to BG's and first gens than anything.

Happy hunting!

As for this thread, I've heard of Honduh guys using Busa throttle bodies for ITB setups on their engines so I've always wondered if it'd work with ours too... I'll do some looking.

[uniquez5]

MrH.

I was thinking of using gsx 750 ones if I did it. Busa would be huge I think. Might create more power though.

[mx-3_4evr]

if I do itb, wouldn't i need a stand alone ecu?

You would be correct sir
