is an Indy aluminum intake worth spending the 500 bucks on or could i make a decent ported OEM intake worthwhile...if so how hard is it to port One lol...just get a port kit and a gasket and go to town??? let me know

Are you going to install a turbo? Then its a good idea.
If not, you would go for a d90 stock intake, if you aint going over 8000 rpm with a ported magnum with big cam
You loose a lott of torque in the mid range with NA Indy combo.
But It looks cool

 

eventually I will turbo but i guess ill just wait till I start building the turbo motor til then a d90 it is I guess lol how can I get my hands one tho??

You make one of the stock plasik intake. Cut it 90degres off, make a adapter to the tb.
But you can use it, as it is, and mount a 60mm Mpx tb you have to buy anyway.
Re locate battery is nesesery for d90.

 

Its a lot of work with turbo, but you got a m3 killer
I desided to go the Sohc NA way, and are soon hitting the 15.00 sec. Problems with wheel spin
Thats with crane 12 and some bolt ons and lth.

 

Had a 2nd gen indy on my sohc (no 90 degree bend) on my 1st gen that ran low 14's on street tires. I also ran them on N/A dohc and turbo DOHC, along with a 60mm TB and the cars loved it. If you use the magnum manifold you will need an rpm switch to open the intake up (VTEC!!! lol). You may also need a 2nd gen starter because they are clocked a little different for more intake room.

 

The intake thread on .org, I can see, that the standard plastic picks up more midrange torque with a #14, than the Indy. But the Indy picks up wery well at 5000 and up.

 

That whas å fully ported Sohc on 10.5 pistons!

Sumary, on the hole powerband the d90 plastic and d90 Indy came out just even

 

I have å buddy with å Sohc, Indy 1. Gen, and Hahn stage1, running stock engine. He complains about lack of power under 3000 rpm. He has about 240 whp. Never seen a dyno...

 

I was wondering of you could explain a little better how to make a d90 intake and a tb adapter or direct me to a vid lol I'm gonna go with the cheaper one til I go DOHC
