where to find a vtcs less intake manifold

[jdmsp03.5]

As the title states I'm looking for a intake Mani that doesn't have vtcs. Anyone know where to buy one?

your car has one, but you have to remove the VTCS first. but seriously, just pull your upper manifold off, and remove the valves. free and relatively easy.

What he said. If you're prepared to go through the work of swapping manifolds, it's really quite easy to remove the VTCS flaps from your own manifold. Probably takes 5 minutes once the mani is off. Then just fill the hole with JB Weld, sand it smooth, and you are done.

ok thanks guys. once the upper manifold is off where are the valves located? and is there a performance gain once the valves are off??

 

[sunkAlias]

The Butterfly Valves are on the exit side of the manifold. And yeah. esp since you're boosting.
