It is, for the most part. The only real quirk is the tube the goes between the fuel rails. Stock is too long, so, it comes with a 'new' one. So far as I know, that is the only modification you need to make.

The M1 on the other hand, IS a direct swap. Everything just bolts right up. Minor sticking point is.... need to drill and tap a hole for the IAT sensor.

Drilling and taping holes is no problem. I just looked at them and they say there for carburetors and I have a throttle body and wanna keep it...

I may just not be understanding you

Hughes.

M1 <- These have gotten REALLY expensive of late for some reason...... Holy smokes.

The kegger manifold will NOT tolerate boost. It's a two-piece design, and the seal is designed for vacuum, not pressure. It won't last five minutes under boost. Could weld it I suppose. That would certainly be cheaper.

Holy wow. $800+, and I thought the Hughes intake was overpriced.
