Were air rams the only aftermarket intake manifolds ever made for tiburons?

Or were there others out there not as popular? I only ask because it seems like anyone who has an aftermarket IM has the air ram. I have never seen or heard of anybody having something different.

There wasn't a market for them, and few were sold, so the Airram became rare. At one time, you could buy them from a couple Korean stores. But since $500 was too much for 99% of the people here, not many shipped over. That really wasn't all that expensive, but in the Hyundai scene.....



If you really want one, have one built.

Yeah, back in the day the ITB kits were offered through the Australian company that also did drive in, drive out beta swaps. The name is just on the tip of my tongue but I can't exactly remember it - XGODZX?



They also had an NA dohc alpha X3 making an alleged 135kw.

HVe, that's it. Later known as PSC. They had the ITB kits for X3s and RDs.
