thanks for that link! it looks pretty straight forward, I know a guy who fixes wrecked cars, he should be able to get me those parts cheap and I'll have him do the work.
I'll probably wait until my intake breaks first, that way I have a valid reason to do it, and then my dad wont/cant yell at me for whatever it is he could possibly yell at me for.
just a question, as a preventitive measure, what if I put JB weld around the intake manifold before it breaks to help reinforce it, would that work? or is it just a waste of JB weld.
from the guy who broke 5 intake manifolds, i say its a wasteOriginally Posted by Armageddon Sunset
just a thought that my car guy gave to me......wanted to see what the guys with the broken manifolds would say. I'll relay that along.
i was on my way home TODAY....and my car starts idleing rough.....thank god i wasn't too far.....but long story short......mine cracked in the same location that seth98est's did. if you made any progress in getting this acknowledged as a recall, please let me know.

You can add me to the list of completely stock cracked intake manifolds. Went to the dealer to get a new one and he told they no longer make the manifold that came on my car. He went on to inform me mitsu has changed part numbers for the 8g and the new new part number cross references the 03 outlander intake manifold. Then he admitted there are currently 54 on backorder in their ATL distribution center, however he said there are no TSBs or recalls on this part. Obviously Mitsu know this was poor design hence the change in the part number, but more than likely they will never admit this.
Well i got the guys at my dealership to admit it is a common problem cause i bought my replacement throught my job using the Pep Boys name and the guy was like "yea thats a regular with those cars " ...Damn i guess i should find that reciept java script:emoticon('', 'smid_24')Originally Posted by neepar

well its been a couple of months and so far everything is good . mine cracked in the groove near the throthle body. I had the entire groove filled so its really more sturdy,
no idea what he used though but he didnt just repair it, by filling that groove up the intake will never crack THERE again he guaranteed it,
total cost for the repairs was 40 $ i think maybe less
2002 blue G RIP07
2003 grey G with the heart of an Evo 8
1999 beige G . winter beater and well its beige
My first one cracked with the stock intake i got a used one put on for $500 and i also had an SRI installed it lasted about 1 month and its cracked again 3 days ago. its not to the point where it stalls every time u start it but its gettin there. i probably got a week b4 i have to have a new 1.

As long as you replace your motor mounts on time, you will be ok. Mine cracked at 158K and that's because my front and rear mounts went bad and I ignored it, while my engine was rocking back and forth. Replaced the mounts and bought a used intake manifold, no problems since.
To answer your question though, I think you need 2003 Outlander manifold.
Edward Emerson, 2000 galant es. dono if its too late but oh wellz. my second one just cracked. now im getting smart and going to outlander manifold and replacing all motor mounts just in case
also another problem that ive seen,,,,the bolts holding the TB to the manifold are too long and press against the I.M.
Reason it cracks is due to bad motor mounts that allow the rocking back and forth. I didn't have an aftermarket intake on mine when it broke but I did have the front an drear mounts in really bad shape and every time I would take my foot of the gas on the highway, the car would feel like downshifting. A far as the outlander intake, you need one from a 2003 outlander, I believe.
