Wow! Thats a great increase in power. That is power you can use throughout the entire powerband!

This seems like a must have for any evo that is looking for an economical POWER mod!!

I have heard there are fitment issues pertaining to the Evo IX, in regards to fitment around the MIVEC control module and cylinder head water pipe. Are the fitment issues going to be addressed or is the manifold going to be redesigned to make this product easier to install for Evo IXs? The forum users have said they had to get their manifold machined for clearance, are there any known issues installing this manifold on a VIII?

We know there is some chatter on the boards about the manifold. There were some reports of manifolds in the intial release that interfered with the Evo9 solenoid by 2mm (or approx 0.080") or less. There is no such issue on the Evo8. It is easy enough for any installer to grind or file it to fit. The pre-production unit that we approved didn't have any issues so we believe may be caused by slight variations in the part position in the machining fixture. It has been addressed for the next production run. Considering that we won't have anymore for sometime, I wouldn't let this hold you back from getting it if you access to one.

Just waiting on the 2nd edition for Evo IX for now. Rather have a perfect fit manifold, lol~~~
anyway, thanx for bring such affordable intake manifold to the market!! Good luck!!

If you are aware of the fitment issues with ur bolton piece why not correct it yourself?

Evogasm, please see two comments back: "It has been addressed for the next production run."

Anonymous, the updated version of the Evo manifold is available now.

Are the directions good as far as the hoses and fittings that are omitted from the stock manifold to the Skunk?

evilution, the install is pretty straightforward, however, if you run into any issues, you can always give us a call for help.
