Alternative Inlet Manifolds

[AlfaJack]

We know that the Lancia Kappa and Integrale 16v manifolds fit and of course the Coupe 16vT shouldn't be too much of a problem.

But what are the gains for each and where in the power range does it happen?

Cheers

well, with both manifolds its should be at high revs, when you get some power more..
some guy was tested grale manifold on 16vt coupe and got almost 15hp more.
its not a blug and play jobe, but easier to alfa, than fiat ( I have grale manifold )
first: alfa have different pipes for fuel, which is good.. on fiat it goes on the same pipe
second: you have to modify the cable ( gas-cable or something in english )
third: boost pipes also have to modify

grale manifold is also 2.5kg lighter

Thanks Jarkko, really it would be from low to mid range I would like a bit more torque so probably not that beneficial to me. Does look a lot smaller though! Makes access easier :)

Hi Jarkko - that looks great - I could sure use a few more horses at high Revs - but i'm not likely to see a grale manifold for sale here unfortunately :(
