sorry if this was asked already, but does it put the TB in the stock location?

Yes it does. You can either run it with the cable style OEM TB or change over to a drive by wire set up. The choice is yours. I would stick with the cable style...less headaches

Can we get a pick of the adaptor that would put the TB in the stock location?

There are 2 options. You can either get a 45 degree silicone coupler to bring the TB to the OEM location or wait a few weeks to get a nice shiny billet piece to bring it back to OEM

Thats what I figured from looking over the pics. I did see on Rado's xB at Sema that it had a GE intake manifold but it did have some sort of adaptor that seemed to locate the TB in a different location. Not directly attached the the manifold. Of course they were using a drive by cable system on it.

Just wanted to let you all know that I'm one of the two Scionlifers that has gotten his filthy mitts on one of these Intake manifolds! It most certainly is VERY sexy and super well built! I'm wicked stoked to drop this b_tch in my car STAT.. I've also got a new 12psi NST pulley to replace my 9.5psi (soon to be for sale) along with some 550c injectors.. I'll most likely be starting a new thread about my DIY install along with posting my before and after dyno numbers. If anyone in the North Jerz is down to check it out and or give a hand def let me know...

Deatschwerks 550c Injectors, 12psi NST pulley and the super sexy Descendant Intake Manifold...

Thanks a lot Geoff!!!

As you can see I'm looking VERY forward to this next upgrade/tune and yes, I will DEF be starting a new thread in the next couple of weekends for the DIY install along with before and after numbers. Just waiting on the TB angle adapter and a replacement gasket for the manifold...

Stay tuned suckaz!
