Exaudi855T5 Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 That is the correct. Not that the motor has less power....but rather that is boost slow and not fast...like the wastegate is loose but its not. I thought maybe it was getting too hot or something and needed a better intercooler....but people seem to run these for awhile. Damn, what boost and stuff does that rica stage 2 run? Looks like your running pig rich. As for the japanifold. When comparing the two side by side, you could see how much more free flowing the the runners were. and how the seperator is way recessed inside vs. on top. And, whether it looks good or not. results tell the truth. It def changed the tone of the car too. How do you like your R mani? I run the basic stage 2 rica ECU tune. Ya I'm running rich as fu*k... exhaust tip looks the same. I like it pretty well, I swapped for a 16T, R manifold and installed a turboback all at the same time so I saw a huge difference, but can't tell for the R mani alone. Running that rich, am I loosing any performance or just filling up my parts full of deposits ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exaudi855T5 Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 Oh and I run 16 psi to answer your question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
850T5M Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 Less Performance, More $$ on gas lol...I bet thats what my manifold looks like lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T5wagon1717 Posted October 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 Yeah, it takes out a little on performance....but has a bit of piece of mind if you don't run a wideband. I run 17-18psi on mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volvost Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 Wich better Japanifold or T5-R manifold? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greekone Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 Wich better Japanifold or T5-R manifold? Japanifold. The T5R manifold is just like the regular T5 manifold, you want to find a P2R manifold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T5wagon1717 Posted October 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 What he said. As for the R manifold. I have never used one. Marberoman (from sweden) told me to get the japanifold...and I can say there is def a difference in performance and in looks. Louder too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
