ummm...i sorta beg to differ. andre at lonewolf is great to work with. i was going to have him build a manifold for me, but stumbled upon an r/ternie intake that fit my needs and was cheap. andre will design a custom intake based on your motor build and includes a fuel rail in the deal for around 500.00. the reason that tamadrumr didn't have any luck is that he was using a short runner f/i mani on an n/a stock mag motor. until amm came along the only other option was an indy. no offense to gary howell, but the indy has been purported to be great for f/i, but abysmal for n/a. apparently it has good gains, but they are all way up in the rpms. i think that for the money amm is a great deal, but if you want a good looking mani with an integral fuel rail at a good price then andre and lonewolf are worth a look.
ooh...there's a glimmer of the dream left!!!

If you can get onebuilt for your motor than go for it. Since you have an 03 and there are currently arent any aftermarket ecus out to raise your limiter unless you go standalone. I would get a IM with mid length runners so you have some power in your rpm range, or you could do itbs they are proven to make alot of power on a sohc, but they also like to rev.

Individual Throttle Bodies...

When I contacted Lonewolf about an intake manifold for an N/A R/T a few months back he suggested to simply have the stock manifold ported because his manifold was better suited for a turbo application...
