Pros and cons? I was just digging the turbo inlet under the intake?
Or would it cause some problems

Re: Intake manifold from a v4 sti
Pros: Intake goes under the manifold, kind of looks cool.
Cons: MAJOR PITA. I had that setup on my EJ20G and it's more of a headache than it's worth. Didn't cause any problems it was just hard as hell to work on. The intake is all crammed under the manifold and if you go aftermarket you're really in for it as that thing hardly fits. I had to bend the fuel lines and brackets to get it to fit. Most likely going to require custom plumbing as well. I would avoid it. Rotated setup would be a better investment.

Well I think it comes with all the fuel lines and basically everything besides the throttle body. I would like to keep it to tmic.Soon a Jdm turbo

If you use the stock inlet and turbo/intercooler setup it will be much easier than what I did.

You didn't specifically mention it, but that manifold bolts to DOHC heads. It will not work with the stock EJ22t SOHC heads.
