Overview

The AMS Performance Subaru EJ Intake Manifold in the reverse rotation layout turns the throttle body opening around compared with the standard version, which helps on builds with relocated intercooler piping or rotated turbo kits. It is the same cast manifold AMS developed in house with SolidWorks and CFD software, and AMS recorded gains of up to 51 wheel horsepower over the factory manifold.

Inside is a 4.5-liter plenum that feeds 13" equal-length runners with a 2.5" (63.5mm) inside diameter. The runners taper and are angled to match the cylinder head ports, and CNC-machined billet aluminum bellhorns act as internal velocity stacks for a broad, usable powerband. The ports at the head are oversized so they can be matched to ported heads.

The throttle body opening accepts throttle bodies up to 2.625" (66.675mm), or 70mm with mild porting, and the manifold works with top-feed injectors and aftermarket fuel rails. Choose the uncoated cast finish or the textured red powder coat from the options menu.

FAQ

What is the difference from the standard manifold?
Only the throttle body orientation. The reverse rotation version points the throttle body the other way for different charge pipe routing.

Does it work with a top mount intercooler?
No. AMS says it is not compatible with top mount intercoolers.

Can I keep the factory coolant reservoir?
Not in its stock spot. AMS notes custom brackets are needed to mount the upper coolant reservoir.

Fitment Notes

Fits 2002-2014 Subaru Impreza WRX, 2004-2014 Impreza WRX STI and 2015-2021 WRX STI with EJ engines sold in the US. 2008-2021 STI may need mild clearancing at the A/C line. Not for the FA20 or FA24 WRX. See the standard rotation manifold or browse all AMS Performance parts.
