my friend just blew up his A6 and was wondering how much gains would it be to swap his IM on my Y7 i would get the manifold with a B16 throttle body also would i have to change out the fuel rail use the Y7 or any other things i need to worry about thanks

from what ive heard, the a6 mani is a choker. i dont belive youll gain that much unless you swap to like a y8 or z6, or better yet skunk 2 pro series or itb's... mmmmmmm itb's...

i think you would run into the air idle control, you would see a small gain

 

[98ekSIRK]

so its prob worth it to wait and find a y8 mani?

 

[SupaStyl]

ya most likely, im runnin my stock a6 mani and with all my supporting mods it just chokes it and prevents me from steppin up to the next level. Skunk2 pro series comin soon for me.

 

[98ekSIRK]

do you have a y7?

 

[Slow_Import]

its probably better than the stock y7, but i'd rather just wait til i find a y8 or z6...but better to go with a y8 that way all the sensors will be pluged up...

I have a y7, any intake with a plenum is going to be way better than the downdraft style IM the y7 uses. thats my two cents but i havent heard anyone dispute that. the downdraft thing just sucks and not the way you want your IM to suck either! ;o)

I'd hit the junk yard and grab a Z6 or Y8 mani.

i swapped the y8 im onto my y7 and wow what a difference. before the engine would choke at high rpms and now it pulls strong. even down low i gained power. my throttle is a bit more responsive.

 

[SupaStyl]

do you have a y7?

definately not, im runnin a a6 block, p29 pistons, y8 head, a6 dizzy, and a6 mani.
