Port stock intake manifold or buy full blown?

Sorry I forgot to take pictures of what was done it really wasn't a big deal weld the mounting holes for the throttle body on the manifold and drill and tap new holes, make one hole first then bolt the throttle body down make sure its centered then drill the rest of the 3 holes with the throttle body bolted on this way you cant mess it up.

How off is the FB unit compared to the stock IM manifold? In other words how much did you have to modify your piping. I'm asking as I'm running a aftercooler so it's alittle tighter fit.

All I had to do was cut off 1 1/2" of the charge pipe going to the throttle body. So it just sticks out about 1.5 inches farther than stock seems to be the same height and position.

I really think it made a difference it's so responsive but no proof at this time, I'm waiting for a tuning appointment I will post the results good or bad after.

lol. come one guys. you know its mainly to look pretty. yes I picked up about 30-40hp with the fullblown mani/tb combo. but I mainly bought it for the looks. throttle response is a lot different but I cant say that its better. if you touch the gas just a little you get a rush of air in.
