      Holy ****, 80mm throttle body lol. There is no need for a 50mm throttle body on an Aveo let alone a 80mm one. That is larger than most after market throttle bodies for new edge mustangs.

      i honestly think the aveo is a good starting point.

      it is built alot like a vw rabbit, or earlier golf. it even has the same suspension design. The interior is nice, the engine has potential.

      if we had a 2 door it would be even better..

      there just are no bolt on parts.

      with all that work you might as well do an engine swap.
      i seen a intake manifold on a korean site once, but they never responded to me

      That depends on the shop you choose, and what you have them do..

      building it to you specs could be @ 300+ If they need to figure out tuning and flow etc, double that. If you have them change a flange and use an already made manifold it could start @ $100 if you supply the parts.

      my custom manifold, a stock 16v VW lower manifold mated to a custom flange to how 48mm ITB's:
