I hear a weiand stealth is a good option... I am running a performer rpm with 850dp.

I replaced my stock intake with a weiand stealth. I like it, plus I picked up a couple mph, but then again compared to the stock anything is better. Haha

I like the rpm air gap manifolds. Good compromise on torque and horsepower. Most jet boats aren't set up to benefit from a single plane and especially a tunnel ram. No reason to run a manifold for high rpm use on a motor that rarely sees over 5 grand.

I upgraded from the torker to the victor and I really like it. Got a little more rpm out of it. Looks better too.


Life is uncertain. Don't sip.
