Went to carpart.com and found my VRX for $125 :dunno:

 

good find!!

 

im really starting to think all the import 3.0L v6's are the same :lol:

 

I know the Tiburon is a 2.7 but would their manifolds fit? as far as how it looks bolted up it looks bout the same. Anyone know?

 

The Tibby manifold will fit. The motor is just a destroked 6G72 with DOHC heads. Any aftermarket manifold for the Tibbys will fit our cars.

That svery interesting. I see alot of Manifolds for them cars. Thanks for that Information. Also would the 3g v6 benefit from their Stock manifolds?

 

Thats good to know. Besides the GTS what manifolds will fit while keeping the battery under the hood? I have the vrx on, but i hate having the battery in the trunk.

I just got a smaller battery and it worked fine having everything under the hood.

Im sure of that, but the only thing that worries me is the engine height issues etc... if we could close the hood.

 

Good point. Im not sure if the stock Tibby manifolds are equal length or not. Ill look.

 

It appears to me that it is equal length and will fit. Definantly gonna need to relocate the battery or get a small gel pac set.

 

Good find Ross!

 

:twothumb: These are about $75 on Car-Part.com and all over the place!!!! Im gonna pick one up as soon as I have the money and start playing with it.

So if the tibby manifold fits our car, then does that mean the Alpine supercharger available for the tibs will fit our cars too? :eek3:

 

if you have a tibby manifold and there is no clearnace issues. I dont see why not.. but would wonder why.

 

wat kind of benefits expected by doing this? HP gain? Control?

 

you guys would prolly be the first... so i dont think anyone knows

 

This is what I would love to see someone to try (somebody with boost maybe? :fever: ):

as I said over there, I'm poor but curious lol

It's the NGM stage 4 mani for the tib. more info:

Oh yea!!!! Those are a little expenive though. I seem to remember RPW saying that they were testing the Apline rootscharger on our cars for data to produce their own roots style charger. All these similaritys make me wonder if the DOHC heads from a Tibby will fit our cars. If there is enough room in the engine bay and the pistons are the same diameter? Who knows!

I've been wondering something like that for the last couple days. Not the tib head but the XG300. Honestly, I can't quite follow these hyundai engines. It seems to me that they had/have a 3.0 engine that is based on the 6g72 and DOHC, yet, they make lower power... Rumor says that the XG350 (6GCU sigma 3.5) engine shares the bottom with the 6g74, but has a different head. But the mani fits again.

I wonder about the sigma 3.0 DOHC engine (6GCT) in the XG300 (192hp) and the almost same engine in the Equus (203hp).

And I still can't find info on that the delta 2.7 in the tib in fact would be a destroked 6g72. (Could someone point me in the right dirction?)

For the cost of the stage IV, you could get the better of the two RPW manifolds (the one with internal ram tubes, as they call them), and it's already known that they fit our cars (the cheaper of the two is probably comparable to these stage IV ones). The design is slightly different between the two though - I'm not sure whether the wedge shaped plenum chamber (of the NXT gen one) or the closer-to-stock shaped one (of RPW) would lend itself to better gains. I wish there were actual dyno results from the RPW one like there are for the NXT one.

 

MAN! i did not even think about some tibby motor parts cross fitting with our motors.... :uh:

Does anyone know if the fuel rails are interchangeable aswell?

from what i can tell and read form both RPW and the NXT manifolds. RPW is using the stock runners with a new plenum with the internal valasity stacks or ram tubes what ever you want to call them and the stage IV NXT manifolds are a complete sheet metal intake manifold as in the runners are mandrel bent aluminum with a sheet metal plenum. Looks to me that NXT is getting the better half here then RPW is. NXT is what im looking for a full sheet metal intake manifold.

 

if you are worry about clearance issues that much with tibbys manifolds why dont you just put a cowl induction on the hood. that would give it a good amount of clearance and i guarantee that youd be the only eclipse around with a cowl induction.

:spock: cowl on a eclipse.... :ugh: :noplease:
