Default Tax Return Special on Intake Manifold and Throttle Body Porting!

Getting a tax refund? What better way to use it than to get your Intake Manifold and Throttle Body ported! This is one of the cheapest ways to gain up to 30 horsepower (LS2 after installation and tuning). Stock intake manifolds are plagued with ridges and bumps left from the factory mold that sap horsepower from your engine. Our precision porting process removes those obstacles that disrupt airflow.

SPECIAL OFFER: When you send us both your Intake Manifold and Throttle Body for porting, we will powder coat your fuel rail for FREE! 10 colors to choose from. This offer expires 04-15-11.


LS2, LS3, LS7, L76 and FAST Intake Manifolds

BASIC INTAKE MANIFOLD AND THROTTLE BODY PORTING
$325 Total. Includes FREE fuel rail powder coating and return shipping.


Factory Runner.................................. .......Factory Runner Ported


Factory Plenum.................................. .......Factory Plenum Basic Porting (LS2... 9-13 rwhp gain)

RADICAL INTAKE MANIFOLD AND THROTTLE BODY PORTING
$445 Total. Includes FREE fuel rail powder coating and return shipping.


Same porting as BASIC except the Plenum is Radically ported, removing all posts and center ridges that hinder airflow. (LS2... 15-20 rwhp gain). Not applicable on FAST manifolds.


HOW TO ORDER
1. Complete our Purchase Order at http://www.peakspeedshop.com/Peak_Speed_Shop_PO.php
2. Remove your intake manifold and throttle body (an owner can generally do this themselves in less than 2 hours). Follow our step by step instructions at http://www.peakspeedshop.com/page6.php
3. Ship to Peak Speed Shop.
4. Peak Speed Shop generally turns orders around in 5-7 days (with powder coating) and pays the shipping cost to ship it back to you.


Or, Call Me at 719-651-1952 to get this special pricing.

Generally shipped back to you 1-2 days after we receive it. We pay return shipping of FedEx Ground, but you can pay the difference to have it overnighted if you need it back quickly.

Default Intake Manifold Step by Step Removal

There may be some forum members that wonder if they have the ability to remove their intake manifold and throttle body themselves. Most DIY weekend mechanics can do this in an hour or less.

We have step by step instructions with detailed photos on our web site. Here is a link for those who are interested: http://www.peakspeedshop.com/page6.php

Default Powder Coating advantages

For those wondering the advantages of powder coating your parts over painting them, it boils down to luster and durability. For more information, here is a link to our website page titled Powder Coating FAQs:

Just wanted everyone to know that Bob did a fantastic job on my manifold and throttlebody. Not only was Bob great to work with, but my manifold arrived at Peakspeed damaged and Bob took great pains to contact me about it (I'm not easy to get a hold of) and repaired it for free. Both pieces came back looking great - just as advertised.

Bob,

The set up runs great and I can feel a difference in throttle response. I haven't really jumped on it yet as the weather up here has been lousy and I'm still on last years gas. I do plan to get down to TJ Wongs for a tune and will let you know how it turns out.

Stay tuned.

Just curious, how well does the radical porting hold up to high boost?

What is the price on just the radical porting of an LS2 manifold?

At this point, we're doing the radical porting on non forced induction cars only. While we think it would stand up to the pressure just fine, we haven't completed conclusive testing.

The price for just radical porting of an LS2 IM is $370. Basic porting is $250.

Was this the radical IM porting? Was your car already tuned before installing ported TB and IM?
