Intake Manifold

The intake manifold is made of glass fibre reinforced polyamide and is screwed directly to the cylinder head with six screws. When the engine works with boosting, the primary pipe is relatively short and the collective volume rather small. The intake manifold consists of:

1. Manifold pressure sensor MAP
2. EVAP connection
3. ETA (Electronic Throttle Actuator)
4. Two of four attachments to upper engine cover

The intake manifold is sealed to the cylinder head by means of a vertical rubber gasket.
