Intake manifolds, is a yes, the phenolic spaces are just spacers that set the intake manifolds up a little higher to gain volume. They aren't needed and just something else waiting to be a boost leak. I wouldn't use those. If you are buying Robs big intakes, you don't need them anyway, or even if you are going with the modified stock manis like I am running, I still wouldn't use them. PSK, is a yes. Sprint booster just gets rid of the lag in the throttle, yes, but that is a personal thing, no HP involved here. The 55 pump is needed for the higher boost pulleys like the 61mm sold by Eurocharged or 62 Karmann pulley sold on here recently. A 185 crank would need the pump as well. So, yes I would run it whether you need it or not at this stage. If the manis don't get you the kick you want, then my next suggestion is sell the 65mm pulley and go to the 61 or 62. Just my .02...


OH, and a tune will be needed again for those manis... Eurocharged has done both my cars over the internet. I checked the tune at the track last spring while running the half mile event. I couldn't have been closer than if done on a dyno. You just need to let them know exactly what you are running. good luck
Rob big intake?? I'm buying the tweated and stock intake manifolds. Well I'm a speed demon. I love speed. So it looks like I will sell my pulleys & get bigger. I just thought stacking would give the max hp. When you stack what would I have to buy since I already have code 3. I will also already have fuel pump cause I have a friend who works at Mercedes and is giving it for cost. I am just saying I will prolly only get $400 for my code 3. I will have to put around $500 more to get bigger pulleys. Fuel injections are $550. I was just thinking it would be more cost efficient to double stack plus I'm getting more HP.
