I thought about the intake manifold but I’m not sure it’s worth doing. Does the cam cap need to be off to install a catch can? I was considering installing one.

Manifold is not necessary. Catch can can be done at any time.

I'd get the revised manifold when you go in for your first carbon cleaning. I was quoted $750 for revised intake manifold and Walnut shell blasting

If I had the bread I would have them blast and then go upgraded aluminum mani. Just because cool points. Lol

Yeah cool points beat out horse power everytime. I put in two turbo whistles in my exhaust in my '89 rx7 and told everyone I put in twin turbo. Had all my high school fooled.

Those are some pretty expensive cool points, but I like the turbo whistle idea. I'll pass on the manifold since I am already pretty cool. Thanks everyone for the great advice.
