Here we have been testing some intakes manifolds on our

Started with a
ls3 std plastic manifold using 92 mm cable throttle body

Ls3 manifold came up with
335kw 449hp and around 632 ftlb torque
Then we fitted a Holley hi rise manifold with a single 4brl throttle body with a result of
367kw 492hp and 621ftlb of torque
