will a 1g manifold bolt up to a 2g? will this work at least as well as the 2g manifold?

 

1g manifold is a downgrade for a 2g. If you want to upgrade, get another 2g manifold and port it, get an Evo 3 manifold and port it- though Mitsu supposedly hiked the prices on them recently so it's not as economical as it once was, or get the Slowboyracing manifold that's just a bit more than an Evo manifold and comes cast in fully ported form.

 

I agree, as long as your talking about Exhaust manifolds.
No one specified which manifold we are disscussing.

 

im sorry i ment exhaust

 

They mean exhaust too. I have a 2G manifold if you need one!
2G is way better!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

You're right, I just assumed he was talking about exhaust manifolds. The 1g intake manifold+porting the head to match is considered an upgrade by some, though others argue that the 1g ports are too big.

 

Yep, supposedly the 1g intake is designed for better flow.

 

Best combo is a 1g intake mani with a 2g(ported)/evoIII(ported) exhaust mani. Then you gotta worry about exhaust, yay.

 

Which of the two would you rather have? Just curious.

 

I'm not sure if there is a major difference but on my galant I had a FP evoIII ported exhaust manifold.

From what I have seen people are pretty much doing the same thing with a ported 2g as people with a ported evoIII with similar setups. I got the evoIII because it came as a whole setup when I bought a fp green off of a car. If I was going budget I'd probably just do a ported 2g. Probably not worth the money for the extra little bang you would get out of an evoIII. But I have no experience with ported 2g mani's at all so most of my reasons/arguements are one sided.
