{"product_id":"polished-port-lower-inlet-manifold","title":"Polished Port Lower Inlet Manifold","description":"The ELEVATE Volvo C30 T5 Polished Port Lower Intake Manifold is engineered to enhance engine performance by optimizing airflow. This component serves as the final pathway for boosted air before it enters the cylinder head, and its design focuses on maximizing air volume, flow, and velocity.\n\nUtilizing a proprietary Abrasive Flow Media (AFM) process, the intake ports are polished to a superior smoothness that surpasses traditional hand-finishing or porting methods. This AFM technique involves forcing a specialized abrasive putty through the ports multiple times under high pressure, ensuring a consistent, restriction-free surface. The ports are precision-machined in the USA and gasket-matched to the ELEVATE Performance Inlet Manifold for synergistic performance gains.\n\nInstallation is intended to be manageable for a do-it-yourselfer with basic automotive skills and hand tools, though it requires the removal of the inlet manifold and fuel injectors. The product is sold on an exchange basis, meaning a newly machined manifold is shipped upon order, and the customer returns their original unit. A $425.00 core charge is applied, which is refunded upon receipt of the stock manifold in good condition. The purchase includes the lower inlet manifold, a factory gasket for the head, and a replacement hose clamp. Note that the gasket between the ELEVATE Performance Inlet Manifold and this Port Polished Lower Inlet Manifold is sold separately.","brand":"Elevate","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52687934849336,"sku":"209:40001","price":677.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/4895\/3144\/files\/664707168.jpg?v=1784887726","url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/polished-port-lower-inlet-manifold","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
