So a while back, this was sorta brought up but i want more specifics on exactly how to do it....I think its a good performance option for the 5s-fe if its true. I remember 1bwilson said that you could take the intake manifold off a JDM 3s-fe and a 60mm throttle body and you could get gains of around 40 horsepower. I've searched everywhere online for more info on it, and havent seen much of anything. I would just like to verify that claim, and if its true.....
a.) Exactly what parts do you need to get it to work? Would the manifold be from the Curren's 3s-fe?? b.) Would about a 40hp gain be reasonable to expect? Just a little more knowledge on this would be greatly appreciated. -------------------- 3rd gen ST205 3SGTE - Alive and boosting. |

I can bet you for the same price of doing this, you could build your existing 5sfe to make more HP. I can bet the WebCam performance camshafts are cheaper to buy and install than to do a head swap. Some people claim 30HP from these camshafts (no clue if this is true), but I can highly doubt you will ever get 40HP out of this head swap. I will doubt you will see much of any gain.
