501-112-414
Overview:
The Weapon R Sheet Metal Intake Manifold is a high-performance upgrade designed specifically for the 2005 to 2010 Scion tC. Engineered to enhance airflow and boost engine output, this intake manifold delivers significant power gains for both naturally aspirated and forced induction setups. Whether you’re a daily driver seeking improved throttle response or a performance enthusiast aiming for higher horsepower, this manifold offers reliable and durable performance enhancements.
Crafted from premium materials and precision-machined components, it replaces the restrictive factory manifold to provide quicker turbo spool and substantial top-end power increases. Installation is straightforward with no modifications required, making it an ideal upgrade for those looking to maximize their Scion tC’s potential without hassle.
Key Features:
This intake manifold combines advanced engineering and quality construction to deliver superior performance and durability:
- High-volume design proven to increase horsepower by 15–30 hp on naturally aspirated engines and 45–90 hp on forced induction applications.
- CNC-machined velocity stacks and flanges ensure smooth, efficient airflow for improved engine breathing.
- Constructed from high-grade AL6061 aluminum for exceptional strength and long-lasting durability.
- Fully TIG-welded assembly to prevent leaks and cracks, ensuring reliable operation under high boost and stress.
- Offers quicker turbo spool and enhanced top-end power compared to the OEM factory manifold.
- Direct bolt-on fitment with no cutting, drilling, or special tuning required.
- Compatible with stock throttle body; however, 2005–2006 models require a separately purchased throttle body O-ring gasket from 2007–2010 models for proper sealing.
Construction & Design:
The Weapon R intake manifold is expertly crafted from high-quality AL6061 aluminum, known for its excellent strength-to-weight ratio and resistance to heat and corrosion. The manifold features CNC-machined velocity stacks and flanges that optimize airflow dynamics, reducing turbulence and improving volumetric efficiency.
Each manifold is carefully TIG-welded to create a robust, leak-proof structure capable of handling the demands of both naturally aspirated and forced induction engines. This meticulous construction ensures durability and consistent performance, even under high boost pressures.
Performance & Sound
- Delivers proven horsepower gains of 15–30 hp on naturally aspirated engines.
- Supports substantial power increases of 45–90 hp on turbocharged or supercharged setups.
- Enhances turbocharger spool time for quicker boost response and improved drivability.
- Improves throttle response and overall engine efficiency compared to the factory manifold.
Installation & Fitment:
