Default Any Other Intake Manifolds?

So far with a little bit of research the only intake manifold I have found for the EJ25 is one from Magnus. Also there seems to be no after market overbored throttle body kits on the market. Does anyone have any input on the Magnus intake manifold and does anyone know of any after market throttle body for the EJ25?

i havn't heard great things about the magnus one, most people who are making a fair amount of horsepower (400 - 600) use the stock intake manifold and get rid of the tumbler valve's.

i know static x is working on an intake but noone knows when they will be up for sale.

Give it some time and we'll have a good selection of them to choose from. Probably.

No point for most people. The magnus sacrifices some low end power..making it less than ideal when compared to other mods for the price.

thank you everyone for your advice. The reason that I am so curious is because I am about to build the hell out of my EJ25 and I was just trying to cover all of the bases. I know in terms of other high HP builds, like the Buschur Racing EVO they used the stock intake manifold, just had it ported to help air flow. That will save me some more money on the build up anyhow. Thanks again. Crawford Performance makes a pretty nice tumbler delete system for around $500 or so and I had that on the list of things to get.

WORX has a ported throttle body upgrade on their website you can check out. Even with a massive engine build...from what I've heard...the money spent on an aftermarket intake manifold is better spent on just about anything else.
