How long will it take for modders of all ages and colours start to put the FG intake manifold and technology into older BA or even Pre BA's with the BA motor in it.

Will it or Would it help put more power out...

....

Maybe swapping the motor, but if your car has a BBM manifold, why would you contemplate changing it?

Just like the windsors you might gain a couple of kw with a manifold swap, but only if its a restriction.

Maybe this thread isa few months (or years) early?

revised ba one? isnt it completly different?? old ef-bf was cast alloy.. new one is high omposite heat resistant plastic... with revised intake runners..

oh and.. swapping the gear over from fg -ba-bf shouldnt be too hard right? its still the same blcok so should bolt on... Now.. all you have to do is wait for someone to crash an XR6 T or F6...
