4EFTE Custom Intake Manifold

After finding restrictions in the stock intake manifold, we decided to have a go at making one ourselves!

[@andrew1977au]

Although this manifold will solve your issues, there is much to learn, read up on fluid dynamics, there is so much more gains to be had in building a custom inlet manifold correctly, not many people actually get it right, only good enough.

[@Camp_Dogs]

We were looking into the Audi dual plenum designs, however this one was out first one so lets see if we blow the welds on the intake

adobe inventor is the key, ;)

[@eros20V]

Love it. I wonder if a chargecooler element fits in the manifold 🤔

[@Mrshotshell]

Make sure you disassemble, inspect, and debur that eBay throttle body. On the one I got the throttle plate screws were loose and the plate had a bur around it keeping it from fully closing

[@Kapil-Patel]

Nice fabrication work Matt, the intake manifold looks ace 👍🏽 Love the D&B outro 😎

[@frederickhasselbrinck8010]

Awesome work as usual Matt!!!

[@ricojohnson9714]

Very interested in seeing how you get the key for the TPS to work. Btw manifold looks sick just saved yourself a good $450. Time to send her to the moon

[@Camp_Dogs]

Still over $450 in parts an materials... did the install video explain enough about mounting the tps?

[@shaneussher5360]

Hi there where did you get the 4 velocity stacks from ? cheers Shane NZ...

[@Camp_Dogs]

Jnt performance in Aus. They also have an eBay store

[@shaneussher5360]

@@Camp_Dogs thanks very much for that much appreciated..

[@joshuawood2147]

Awesome fab skills bruz!!!

[@dekonfrost7]

The velocity tubes were really a good idea. Easy way to diminish turbulence inside the intake. Maybe not the best but wont be terrible

[@brisman1963]

Love your work & enthusiasm Matt.

[@dionwright8422]

WickedEP racing have a custom manifold for the 4e/5e that uses a Honda throttle body. Love your design though

[@raynchamba15]

Its gon be pretty rad!! 🔥

[@neonsrt25]

What are the velocity stacks size and dimensions of the intake manifold

[@neonsrt25]

Let me know

[@neonsrt25]

I probably go with 80mm since I can't find a 75mm on my end 😂

[@neonsrt25]

5efte would be ok since is larger displacement 1.5 vs 1.3 going with at least 75mm bore stock 5e stroke is 87 vs 77 on 1.3 5efe crank too

[@regionalmonte]

@matt berry, i saw same plenum at ebay, i am planning to buy one, i have a 4efte on my custom jeep. what else do i need to install this plenum, do i have to modify something to install it? your answer would be a great help for my project. thank you.

[@regionalmonte]

btw, my custom jeep has fmic, stock turbo, planning to install 4agze injectors, i also have external wastegate and bov,.. does stock internals would still be ok?

[@jimmeeuwse3205]

Nice job matt!

[@rossnewton5343]

Matt do you sell this manifold ??

[@rayshaunjackson5054]

Love this

[@catscommunitybd9732]

you are always HERO . the worldclass

[@DimZin]

Would an intake manifold like this make any difference with a ct9 hybrid? I've heard stock manifold isn't a restriction till 300hp

[@Camp_Dogs]

We made it to 265.... its very hot where i live so i wouldnt be surprised if its capable of making 300+ in cooler weather.

[@josephoriordan9673]

How does it struggle to make over 250hp lots of people run the likes of td04 hybrid turbos without plenum inlets on stock heads bar uprated valve springs and make 260-300hp?

[@Camp_Dogs]

I had a stock 5efe with valve springs and it made 265 hp on the same dyno on 17psi with that exact manifold that Nick has in this video... We only revved that engine to 7000... the difference is after 7000 the cfm that the engine needs greatly increases and the intake cant flow it. Also a huge factor is our climate is 35 degrees celcius with around 90% humidity... Cold air= dense air= more power. Our climate sucks haha This is why the boys in the UK can make great HP on the TD04 stuff, cold air is great!!

[@josephoriordan9673]

@@Camp_Dogs ahh your videos make alot more sense to me now haha thank you very much for the reply and keep up with the great content!!

[@Fagirra]

any chance of you making a td04/5 manifold and downpipe and shipping to New Zealand?

[@Camp_Dogs]

not doing exhaust manifolds atm sorry, they take way too long...

[@eddiekururangi7503]

Are you going to be selling these manifolds?

[@Camp_Dogs]

We sold a few but parts cost and labour wasnt viable

[@neonsrt25]

What size are the velocity stacks and dimensions of the intake manifold do I can see if some one can do it for me

[@neonsrt25]

Need to know

[@Camp_Dogs]

over $450 in parts and materials... youre better off buying a chinese one off ebay ready to go...

There’s a Puerto Rican guy in the US that makes 5E-FE billet manifolds but idk how much they are and if the fit in the 4e they are called gato performance he does really nice manifolds

[@Camp_Dogs]

tried emailing them, the response was they dont make them anymore... i wonder how much they were...

Don't you run an Idle control valve?

nah

I have something very similar, 70mm tb.
