It doesn't matter because the split port manifolds are going on there.

I made my own LIM gasket from Fel-Pro Ceramic mesh material.
I also tapered and then ported the outlet wall of the LIM to a knife edge. I pushed the secondary wall towards the primary.
One of my many changes based of airflow theory.

I already had no secondaries when you were here my friend. You even drove the car remember...
I also remember telling you my idea and you finished my thought on it. So of course I concur that your idea is a very good one.

Sure, I drove your car and the TOP end felt great. Oh, and I might I add that you brought up my thought that you thought about that I finished....er...something like that.
Of course, they say great minds think alike.
Oh yeah, the bottom end on your car at that time....well lets just say it was less than I like. I WAS going from my 3L to your 2.5L though. I was just used to real torque.
