    I recently acquired a 1997 GTP and I'm looking to turbo it. I don't really want to gut the M90 and run a turbo that way... so which intake manifold is best?

    I'm figuring it's between the L26 and Fbody. Which makes more power and what's needed to run them?

    Stattama?

    lol, you've never heard of them?

    Let me google that for you

    Regardless, L26 UIM's are cheap and easy to install, Stattama UIM's are sweet...and work great, but are hard to come by and expensive last I checked they aren't getting made anymore either.

    Fbody works nicely due to the individual runners.
