WOW are they out of their minds!?!?!?!
That is well over double what i paid for it like three years ago. The adapter is like forty bucks, and for the difference you can get a WHOLE LE5 motor with the manifold lol. Any ideas why it's so expensive now?
Thats Crazy before I had the supercharger on the car, I ran their kit and it was WAY cheaper than that for everything shipped...maybe they used up inventory they plus surrounding dealers had around...
I only paid $450 for my whole LE5 motor and it came with the intake manifold and TB.
Thats crazy, I forget what I paid for mine, but it was no where near that much.
Found this out a couple months ago when I went on gmpartsdirect.com to price a 2.4 manifold for my friend's Slowbalt. The price has doubled for no apparent reason.
Currently #4 in Ecotec Forced Induction horsepower ratings. 505.8 WHP 414WTQ!!!
Currently 3rd quickest Ecotec on the .org - 10.949 @ 131.50 MPH!!!
Looks like parts are beginning to dry up.
I was hoping that they were having a wicked sale.. Got all excited lol
I thought they were going to have a wicked sale and I was maf because it was going to dive the value of le5 manifolds down. And I'll have one to sell in a month.

And Leafy you could probably sell yours for more than you bought it for and it still be a 'deal' for the guy that buys it lol
Dan, mine will still be 400 bucks but it will come with a free le5.

You say this as if anyone who would run an le5 intake mani has the ability to design one themselves.

Looks better than plastic too!
wow, when did you guys finally start making these? completely bolt on? tuning needed i'm assuming? how's the throttle body connection bolt up?
props aaron, that's even a hell of a price!

Been out for over 6 months, well over 25 units sold already, the cobalt guys go crazy for them.
100% bolt on. May need to modify your intake tube to fit the side mount, tuning will yield best power increase. Factory TB bolts right on.

Aaron, what kind of numbers have people been seeing with Aluminun manifold??

The test car was a LSJ (SS/SC) that went to turbo. Just by replacing the SC manifold to this manifold in the same setup, he was able to tune from 375 HP to 418 HP (43 more HP)
Now you will NOT get that on a N/A setup. Top end will be much greater, I am sure someone has dyno'd one, but has not updated us yet. If we hear more we will let everyone know. Flow is MUCH better than stock.

GMR has got nothing on this

food for thought, I went up 8 whp on 4 less psi with the TTR Manifold over the Hahn Gen I manifold. I also at the time of the dyno had retarded timing (reluctor wheel + timing was taken out) and was running the 2.4 bottom end.

Moral is, if you would have ran 4 more PSI (or apples to apples comparision) you should have had around a 30 HP gain (let me know your thoughts Phil)

It's possible, but at that time I had a severely cracked turbo manifold. I also wanted to add in 2 degrees of timing
