obx-r intake manifold review
just to give every one here on TR a honest review on the obx-r intake manifodl for a gsr,
WHAT A FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT!!!!!!
pulled it out of the box it was shipped in, looked ok untill i saw the size of the ports that bolt to the head, i held up a intake manifold gasket to the i/m ports the worst was a half in to small!
on top of that problem when i tried to install it on to the gsr head the excess pieces of metal were the injectors go thru the i/m were hitting the head with a 1/8th of a inch between the i/m n head.
i guess the Asian in the sweat shop wasnt having a good day when he built this manifold....
how can someone sell a product thats this horrible?
i called up q-sport (who i bought it from off ebay) that turned into a argument
paypal dispute opened

my lag is your courtesy head start
ATTENTION.... installing a head gasket, head studs or pistons and rods in your otherwise STOCK engine dose not make it a "built" engine! stop listing you cars for sale saying they are built when its not!!

that really sucks.
at least you can do something to make it right since the company that sold it to you does not stand behind what they sell.

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.
