    You will definitely want to get it re-tuned. Increased compression ratio and increased intake duration will be different enough to re-tune. At the very least, monitor knock for a while to make sure the old tune is safe for the MIVEC motor.

    Went to the machine shop to check up on the 74 lower intake manifold and it wasn't even touched after being there for 3 weeks so I took it back. I was originally going to run the 74 lower intake manifold with the 75 non MIVEC upper intake manifold but after everything was bolted up and plugged in there was a big vacuum leak at the rear of the 75 manifold due to the EGR passage hitting the rear valve cover and causing the rear of the manifold to lift up a bit. Pulled off everything and ended up using both MIVEC 75 lower and upper intake manifolds after modifying the mounting tabs on the 3kgt rails and also doing some work on the MIVEC upper intake manifold in order to fit with the 3kgt rails. So now here it is finally running and with an OEM JDM bumper no more fiberglass for me!

    I'd rather have the knowledge and ability to do it than the money to buy it already done.

    Glad to see you got everything squared away with the intake setup! Motor looks good sitting in there, winter project would be finding another upper intake manifold to modify for a larger TB ;)
