Intake Manifolds

Do they make a N/A Intake Manifold for the Rx8? If so what brands are the best, Thanks.

The stock intake manifold is VERY good. It's better than anything that Mazda has ever put on a rotary by far. It's going to be extremely hard to do any better than it. You could of course custom build one but if it does make more power anywhere, I guarantee it will have lost more of it in other areas. Average power wins and the stock one covers such a broad range without sacrificing others that it's just not worth replacing.
