You'll need to scrap the stock intake manifolds if you're going for serious power on an NA 13B.-Ted

As far as the intake is concerned what do you suggest? Going the custom route? I also read that converting to a carb or ITBs will give higher gains, but Id like to stay away from carbs and I came up short when looking into the ITBs, any info on those?
