So I got a complete manifold and steeda delete plates from Breenspeed, they are used.
They looked the same, I didnt bother to measure them.
We are mocking the cold side of my turbo .
Looking at hood and shaker clearance

I may be blind but the new intake seems to sit higher???
It bolted up just fine, no issues.

I need to measure my old one and see if there is a difference.
But shouldnt they be the same?

If the ports and bolts line up with no obvious mismatch it's not going to make a difference unless something starts to ride (touch). More than likely there is a manufacturing tolerance involved.

Bruce everything looked the same
I did install a set of MMR rails. We cut the crossover feed and made it fit nice and snug in the back, we also made it go upwards rather then downwards to keep it away from tranny and engine heat.
I think thats where it may have been hung up. We didnt trouble shoot a lot.
Ill get to the shop Saturday, Ill know for sure then.
Im waiting on a tune from Lito and I hope to fire it up this weekend or first of next week

Did you get it to fit?

Havent revisited it yet
I think the rear cross over for the MMR fuel rails is whats holding it up.
I should know more next week.
I did measure the old intake and its like 8 1/4 in high that is the same as the new intake and the steeda plates
