7M custom forward facing intake manifold

This is a quick overview of my custom 7M forward facing intake manifold. This is a must have if you want to dump the factory intake manifold that goes over the top of the motor. This custom manifold was not as hard to build as I thought.

Hello, I really enjoy your your videos. I was wondering if you're using the stock na ecu with your turbo, and stock fue injectors ? Thanks

Thank you for the support and watching the videos! Yeah I was running the stock NA ecu with 550cc injectors. The stock ecu didn't love anything higher than those.

So what "we need" as a 7m community is a good detailed electronics guide when it comes to modernizing the bay. I've looked all over for information should I go to a custom harness and a standalone like a haltec. There is no information as to what modules and the like can be removed and which sensors to update across the board. It is funny that when it comes to the FFIM side of things, there too is so little actual information post 2006.

Ms3 pro is a plug and play ecu using stock harness

I've had to slowly and carefully remove certain sensors and what not to clean up the bay. I'm running the ecumaster which allows you to adapt the factory harness to the standalone ecu. Hopefully this video sheds so light on doing a ffic. It's. Ot super difficult but can be daunting if there is little to no info.

im curious if belt length matters when relocating the alternator? and also without intercooler piping running to the other side how does it route to the passenger side of intercooler

@mainstreambuilds 3 ай бұрын

Yeah belt length does matter in this case. The 7m has 3 different belts with the factory setup. When moving the alternator down below it actually brings it closer to the crank pulley which requires a shorter length belt. The intercooler pipe runs from the intake down through the battery tray to the intercooler. From the intercooler it runs up along the power steering pump and to the turbo.

@@mainstreambuilds awesome good to know thanks man, so you must have gotten rid of the maf and filter, i think im gonna order front facing soon

@@rileypinard2348 I was able to toss the maf when I switched over to a full standalone ecu and ran the new turbo. The forward facing intake looks so good and makes it easier to route the intercooler pipe for the turbo

So I’m planning on getting one myself and it most likely will be the 86.5 and I plan to turbo it. Would yall recommend me do that without changing much of the internals?

It just depends on how much power you are trying to achieve. If it's just the stock PSI or a few PSI above that it should be fine. The forward facing manifold has decent low end torque, better throttle response, better intercooler pipe routing.....and just looks way better.
