Intake manifold for protege?
- Thread starter bidi
- Start date
I don't know... I was looking into getting an RPM switch... they are around $50-80 and I know how to work them. All I need to figure out is what RPM to set it to activate. What other intake manifold options does the lowly 1.6l ZM-DE have?

selling a 1.6 cosmo sri with maf sensor in the for sale section. check it out if intereste its been used for one day.
(laugh)
Still available.
Comes with 3 solenoids, one is the vacuum solenoid which alone costs 120 , checkvalve. Just needs the metal mounting bracket for the solenoids and rpm switch.

thats period. like the 3rd gen 2.0's have the option to run thie 626 manifold. if it is n/a and they run a 626 mmani it will get them about 1-2 hp if that. and thats on a higher displacement engine. but if its turboed and you put the 626 mani on you can earn 10 hp up depending on the boost.
Uhm, you're comparing a FS with the ZL. I understand what you're trying to say but it is based on an assumption. I was actually hoping for a dyno figure or somebody who actually tried it.
Then what about the VICS on the miata's 1.8 engine.
There is a dyno figure for it.
Even so, if it would only gain 2bhp, that is still something for the 1.5/1.6 engines. Add a cai, exhaust and you're already leaning towards 10% hp gain. (<- proven, see forums from Germany)
Unlike the FS we don't have the luxury to get a lot of performance mods, besides it is never going to be a performance monster N/A.But there's nothing wrong with experimenting and making the car run smoother is there

?i agree with you. im just saying that the gains wouldnt be noticable. if anything id think that throttle response would suffer since the engine only needs so much air and if its trying to pull that amount through a larger piping, im assuming, which will decrease air velocity into the engine.

just forge the zm and boost boost boost. or do an fs swap
