The 1JZ/7M Front facing intake manifold??

What cars do these intakes come off of?? Is it a direct bolt on/fit without having to modify anything major?

Thinking on getting one for my 7mgte, any help is appreciated.

i know come companies make a FFIM for the 7mgte at decent prices but remember you have to run different IC piping and new throttle body. for the cost of a used one off a 1jz or 2jz you can buy a brand new one with a 90mm throttle body.

Ok if I were, by any chance, able to get my hands on a 1JZ or 2JZ FFIM does it bolt right on? With throttle body?

my friend got his hands on a 2jz ffim and he said there were no issues. he bought a different (bigger than stock) throttle body for it. the only thing left was the IC piping, which he took measurements and bought some universal aluminum piping and made his own. so yes far as im aware everything will swap over. im sure if i was misled by my friend, and anyone here has information otherwise they will tell you...

Ok cool I really appreciate it.

So is there any power gain with one of those?

heck ya. just the drop in air temp going into the motor alone can account for a noticeable difference, the drop in air temp is due to the fact the the pipe no longer goes over the top of the turbo and engine before entering the engine. and you will most likely get a bigger throttle body on that intake manifold, newer IC piping (if running stock IC piping and then switching to the aluminum, that alone is worth 10 - 20 hp without adj the boost) also a new intercooler because the stock one has the inlet and outlet on the same side whereas its preferred to have and normal intercooler with the inlet and outlet on opposite sides, that is more efficient as well ( the intercooler can give you another 10 - 20 hp) the stock IC piping and intercooler are so inefficient that they lose 3 psi at full boost. the stock 7mgte ran 6.8 lbs of boost and only got 3.8 lbs of boost to the motor. so to make a long story short if somehow you could only just change to the FFIM and leave everything else stock, yes you will get more hp, but due to the fact that you need a new throttle body (go big), new IC piping, and intercooler, you will notice GOOOD gains without touching the boost
