Diy 333i Manifold

[Alex]

How hard is it to make your own manifold similar to one on a 333i ?

surely blank where the throttle body is mount it on the other side and re route breather hose ?

Anyone tried ?

Easy enough aLex, as you said, blank the origional off, and redrill the opposite.
Be careful to clean the inlet manifold PROPERLY!!! or you'll get shit into the engine.

Might have to try that one

has anyone actually done it ?

[Rav335uk]

Yes, i'm sure it's been done on the other E30 forums.
I'll take a look, and if I find anything, i'll post the link for you.

googled e30 m30 manifold and a few came up


found this



got an m10 throttle body? would that not restrict it ?

could you fit an m20 throttle body and m20 airbox along with an m30 maf like some modders do to achieve an oem look?

[Rav335uk]

M30 throttlebody is larger than the M20, so why use that?

[Alex]

M30 then

[Bristol_Jer]

What are the benefits of doing this?

[leeparkes]

Other side of the engine is cooler, imo if thats what your aiming for just build a sheild around the existing airbox.

You got an M30 then Alex?
