i dont think spending 500 to gain 10hp is cost effective. i was hoping on more hp i guess.

it's not just about the HP. figure in the styling, craftsmanship, and made in the USA!!!

show me an intake that will give you more than 10hp.

As for DYNO numbers our boosted 2AZFE customers can expect a minimum of 15% increase in WHP at low boost an as much as 25% on high boost applications. The CNC velocity stack runners & extra large aluminum plentum are the perfect combo for any forced induction application.

As for our NA customers they can expect anywhere from 18-25 WHP increase with this addition however we are actually getting ready to run several NA compraisons where we believe customer will be able to squezze even more power out of it with their NA 2AZFE's. I'll keep everyone posted as details become available.

there thats what i was looking for.... im sold on it.

Default manifold

My understanding is that WR has long runners. The long runner IM from what I have researched is a low-mid range enhancement. While the short runner IM like Descendants is better for the Top End performance.

General rule of thumb would be that the short runner intake manifolds are designed for applications looking to increase high RPM horsepower where as a manifold designed with longer runners is going to increase torque & midrange but probably sacrifices top end power.

This can be confirmed thru www.wilsonmanifolds.com

i searched but unable to find any thing that talks about how the length affects mid or high end gains.

As for pictures, here is a picture of the CNC Velocity stack runners we use on the Descendant Intake Manifold, I also included a picture of an un-welded piece to show the precision fit.

Bump for the comparison. This intake manifold reuses the stock throttle body, correct? Will it also accept any larger tb's?

Well i didnt read every post in here and im not sure if not only gaining power but also the strenght of there manifold!!... Im sure im not the only one but 1 1/2 years ago i was stock motor running 15psi and just cruising on the highway got on it and heard a nasty rattle noise. I was thinking wow finaly did some damage but got back to the shop and came to find out it was my stock manifold that blew up on the inside the runners separated from the plastic. figured no point going stock again and got descendants mani and well it was a difference for sure!!


THANKS FOR THE QUALITY AND AMAZING PRODUCTS!
