    M20 Intake

    Hey guys I need an m20-27 intake. I am trying to get one so I can go ahead and do my port match on it. I have a bone stock one in great shape on my car now that I would send you back plus $20 bucks. I can send it back port matched to the I TB or stock. Just trying to get a leg up to do this swap. My local JY doesn't have any 27's just 25's.

    I have an m20b27 manifold I'll sell you with no interest in getting another one back. $25 plus shipping?

        I'm not sure it would hurt you to just use a b25 intake. Try asking in the m20 sub-forum. I can't think of any reasons right off hand that would cause a problem. Not entirely sure though…

          The b27 makes more power and torque when ported to the 885 head and 325i TB.

                I makes a lot more torque in particular, John has some dyno graphs on it. The setup I am going for should make about 150whp and 175flbs and have a flat curve. I think the same setup with the I intake falls short a little on hp and a lot on torque.

                  That's cool. I am definitely interested in the results of your build.

                    Why not use a SETA manifold then??

                        I see your point, it would be an eta intake but already port matched to the 325i head correct Whodwho?

                          I've got at least 3 different intakes floating around that I would gladly sell. At least 1 is from a 2.7 that has been cleaned, (had it on mine for about 3000 miles until I broke the lower end), also have one that is powder coated in a black wrinkle finish but not sure if that one was for the 2.5 or 2.7. I know I have at least one more floating around as well. Make me an offer as I just need to clear out parts I won't be needing any more. (Going M60!!)
