AMS Performance Carbon Fiber / Clear Billet Intake Manifold with 3rd Fuel Rail for R35 Nissan GT-R
AMS has dedicated extensive time and effort to meticulously engineer the Alpha Performance R35 GT-R Carbon Fiber Intake Manifold, aiming to create the most efficient and power-generating GT-R intake manifold available in the market.
The Alpha Performance R35 GT-R Carbon Fiber Intake Manifold is the result of AMS’ meticulous design process aimed at creating the most efficient and power-producing manifold on the market. Every aspect has been carefully considered to ensure optimal performance of this high-performance induction component. Its exceptional design not only enhances functionality but also adds a visually stunning centerpiece to your GT-R’s engine bay. However, if you’re familiar with the Alpha product line, you know that our commitment has always been to deliver more than just aesthetics.
The Most Power Producing VR38 Intake Manifold On The Market
In contrast to many aftermarket manifolds that tend to offer gains primarily at the top end of the power band while sacrificing performance at lower RPMs, the Alpha GT-R Carbon Fiber manifold delivers exceptional performance across the entire power band. When compared to the leading cast aluminum intake manifold available, the Alpha manifold not only generates higher horsepower and torque, but it does so consistently throughout the entire power band. Right from the moment your turbos begin to spool up, the Alpha intake manifold enhances power and torque output. What’s even more remarkable is that this increased performance does not come at the expense of response or power delivery throughout the RPM range.
Larger, Perfectly Molded Carbon Fiber Plenums
The proper functioning of the plenum is of utmost importance for optimal performance of any intake manifold. In the GT-R, there are two plenums, each dedicated to one bank of the engine. It is crucial that these plenums are sized correctly to ensure the appropriate volume, but their benefits go beyond that. Their shape plays a vital role in distributing charged air evenly among the precisely machined CNC aluminum velocity stacks leading into the runners. Both plenums, crafted from lightweight carbon fiber, are meticulously molded and tapered to effectively channel charged air, resulting in reduced turbulence and accelerated delivery to the engine. By maintaining a balanced airflow and sustaining maximum velocity and pressure when necessary, your GT-R experiences enhanced horsepower output.
The Difference Is In The Details
In their quest to create an intake manifold of exceptional strength and reliability, AMS joined forces with an industry expert. By utilizing aircraft-grade epoxies and employing advanced carbon fiber layering techniques, they meticulously constructed a manifold that meets the exacting strength tolerances of critical aerospace components. To ensure its longevity, the finalized design underwent a rigorous cycle testing regimen, enduring 144,000 repetitions in a high-temperature environment at pressures ranging from 0 to 50psi. This arduous process simulated over 20 years of operation for the average GT-R owner. Additionally, a burst test was conducted, subjecting the test manifold to extreme pressures exceeding 150psi. These rigorous tests highlight the unwavering commitment to quality and durability that sets the AMS manifold apart from the competition.
Rigorously Tested To Last
In their pursuit of delivering an intake manifold characterized by exceptional strength and reliability, AMS collaborated with an industry expert. Employing aircraft-grade epoxies and employing carbon fiber layering techniques, they crafted a manifold that meets the stringent strength tolerances found in critical aerospace components. To ensure its durability, the finalized design underwent an exhaustive cycle testing regimen, with 144,000 repetitions conducted in a high-temperature environment from 0–50psi, simulating over 20 years of average GT-R owner operation. Furthermore, a burst test was conducted, subjecting the test manifold to over 150psi. These grueling tests demonstrate the unparalleled level of scrutiny that sets the AMS manifold apart, making it a testament to its unmatched quality and durability.
Third Fuel Rail Engineered To Support Incredible Power
To accommodate exceptionally high-powered GT-Rs, the Alpha manifold offers provisions for installing an additional Alpha fuel rail, ensuring an ample fuel supply to support a VR engine capable of producing over 2000+ horsepower. Precise positioning of fuel injectors plays a crucial role as optimizing the spray angle enhances fuel atomization and efficiency. AMS’ engineers meticulously incorporated these considerations while designing their third rail setup. This option is available for customers who may want to upgrade from the standard two-rail Alpha carbon manifold to a three-rail system in the future.
Additional Support With Optional Alpha Billet Big Bore Throttle Bodies
If your GT-R has outgrown the stock throttle bodies, it’s likely that they are posing a restriction, especially if your car is generating over 800HP. To address this limitation, AMS offers the largest throttle bodies available for the R35 GT-R, specifically designed to complement the functionality of the intake manifold.

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions.
