    Flash tuning and the second gen intake manifold

    I have one that I am about to have powder coated, is there anything that could or should be added or done to it for flash tuning?

    Like a bung or port that is needed for a feature that say a 3rd gen has but not a 2ng gen?

    As far as I know the only thing the 3rd gen manifolds have is the port for the manifold differential pressure sensor, which would be used to have the ECU see/log boost, however that sensor can be installed remotely, it doesn't have to be on the plenum.

    Don't drill and tap the manifold for a map sensor. There is too much air turbulence and other chaos going on in there. Mount the sensor on the firewall and run a vac line to it.

    Actually there are three different plenums, which one do you have? Do you have a 91-95, 96/97, or 98/99? If you need a 91-95 I will trade you for your 96/97 with the MDP port.
