Okay, A long while ago I got a 2.4 caravan intake manifold that I was planning on cutting up to use for my 2.4 project. I also have a neon DOHC intake manifold that came with the neon head that I have. Looking at the 2.4 van intake, it comes up and over the valve cover, long runners, and a small plenum. The Neon 2.0 intake manifold has significantly shorter runners, and I would say the stock plenum is the same size overall.
Now I assume from what I have read that the long runner 2.4 van intake would produce significantly more torque?? IS there any real benefit to this over the 2.0 neon intake? I know that I can get a manifold spacer, and open up the 2.0 intake manifold to give significantly more volume.
Pros/cons? Will one make the big holset turbo spool faster? I plan to get a indy CNC job done to the head so it will flow 315cfm intake, but I may start out with just a stock head.
Your input is appreciated. ~~Heath
