PERFORMANCE BENEFITS

The sheet-metal construction of the Proton CamPro CPS 1.6L Sheet Metal Performance Intake Manifold allows the intake plenum to be designed with a larger and more performance-oriented internal volume.

 

Compared with a conventional OEM intake manifold, the fabricated plenum provides greater flexibility for modified engine applications.

 

Depending on the complete engine setup, the Proton CamPro CPS 1.6L Sheet Metal Performance Intake Manifold can help support:

• Improved high-RPM airflow
• Better throttle response
• Increased airflow potential
• Improved cylinder filling
• Greater tuning flexibility
• Improved intake characteristics
• Higher performance potential on modified engines

 

The actual result will depend on the complete engine combination. The intake manifold should be matched with the engine’s cylinder-head flow, camshaft specifications, throttle body, exhaust system, fuel system and ECU calibration.

 

A performance intake manifold by itself does not guarantee a specific horsepower increase. The purpose of the Proton CamPro CPS 1.6L Sheet Metal Performance Intake Manifold is to provide an intake configuration that can better support a modified engine when the rest of the engine combination is appropriately developed.

 

 

PLENUM DESIGN

The Proton CamPro CPS 1.6L Sheet Metal Performance Intake Manifold uses a larger-volume fabricated plenum compared with the OEM manifold. The plenum is an important part of the intake system because it provides the air volume and distribution area before the intake runners.

 

For modified CamPro CPS engines, the ability to use a performance-oriented plenum can become increasingly important as the engine’s airflow requirements increase. The sheet-metal design provides flexibility for custom intake development while maintaining a practical engine-bay layout.

 

The plenum design is suitable for applications involving:

• Naturally aspirated performance engines
• Modified CamPro CPS engines
• High-RPM engine builds
• Track cars
• Race cars
• Motorsport applications
• Custom throttle-body configurations
• Aftermarket ECU setups
• Selected turbocharged applications

 

The final intake characteristics will depend on the complete engine specification and tuning strategy.

 

 

THROTTLE BODY COMPATIBILITY

The Proton CamPro CPS 1.6L Sheet Metal Performance Intake Manifold is designed for direct fitment with the stock throttle body and fuel rail based on the supplied configuration. This makes the manifold suitable for customers who want a CamPro CPS intake upgrade while retaining the existing stock throttle-body and fuel-system arrangement.

 

For aftermarket throttle-body applications, additional modifications may be required. When using a larger or different throttle body, the intake opening, throttle-body flange, intake piping and ECU calibration should all be considered as part of the conversion.

 

Customers using an aftermarket throttle body are encouraged to provide the exact throttle-body model and dimensions before ordering.

The intake manifold should not be selected independently from the rest of the engine. For a naturally aspirated CamPro CPS build, the intake manifold should complement the camshaft, cylinder-head airflow, exhaust system and intended RPM range.

 

For turbocharged applications, additional consideration should be given to boost pressure, intake piping, intercooler configuration, throttle-body size and engine-management requirements.

 

 

ECU & TUNING

Professional installation and ECU tuning are recommended after installing the Proton CamPro CPS 1.6L Sheet Metal Performance Intake Manifold. Changing the intake configuration can alter the engine’s airflow characteristics. Depending on the existing engine setup, ECU calibration may need to be adjusted after installation.

 

Tuning considerations may include:

• Fuel calibration
• Ignition calibration
• Throttle calibration
• Idle control
• Load calculation
• MAP sensor calibration
• Throttle-body configuration
• Airflow calibration

 

An aftermarket or standalone ECU can provide additional flexibility for heavily modified CamPro CPS engines.

 

For the best results, the final calibration should be carried out according to the complete engine specification and intended application.

 

 

WHY UPGRADE THE INTAKE MANIFOLD?

The Proton CamPro CPS 1.6L Sheet Metal Performance Intake Manifold provides a fabricated alternative to the conventional OEM intake configuration. A production intake manifold is designed around the requirements of a standard production engine. As the engine is modified, the airflow requirements can change significantly.

 

Performance modifications such as camshafts, cylinder-head porting, higher compression and exhaust upgrades can increase the engine’s airflow requirements. The Proton CamPro CPS 1.6L Sheet Metal Performance Intake Manifold provides a larger-volume fabricated plenum that can form part of a performance-oriented intake system.

 

Potential advantages include:

• Increased airflow potential
• Improved high-RPM breathing
• Better throttle response
• Greater intake design flexibility
• Larger plenum volume
• Suitable for modified engines
• Suitable for custom throttle-body configurations
• Performance-oriented engine-bay appearance

Actual performance results depend on the complete engine combination and ECU tuning.

 

 

PERFORMANCE NOTES

The Proton CamPro CPS 1.6L Sheet Metal Performance Intake Manifold is a supporting performance component and does not guarantee a specific horsepower increase on its own.

 

Actual results depend on:
