Default New ffim


Wondering if anyone has seen or had experience with this ffim I have not seen this one before. First things I notice is it already has iacv flange, it sits high and has an angled throttle body mount. What does everyone think is it to tall? Could this be a new option for some of us?

I think it sits way to high. Looks odd IMHO

They should have made the bend on those runners more of a 90 so that is sits lower, then the extreme throttle body angle would be better.
I would like to see it in the car as it is hard to picture the final spot but yeah it looks a little odd to me too.

I like the thought process, but not sure I like the final execution.

I've been wanting to design my own FFIM for some time that sort of resembled an OEM GTE with the curved runners like this and sits up a little bit so it's not so close to the shock tower. Along with more of a "street" sized plenum (most aftermarket stuff, like this one, seems to have larger plenums which aren't as well suited for the power levels most street guys are at).

This looks a lot like a FFIM that's designed for cars & trucks that get 2JZ-GE swapped. The last time I saw a manifold that looked like that was a xJZ swap into a Starion
