Intake manifold question, i've got an idea! Options

Okay, so in a turoing the 7afe thread here there was a mentioning of taking a honda engine (b16) exhaust header and removing the flange and placing a 7afe flange on it so we can have a cheaper turboing header... SO my question is this, if we can do that to the exhaust cant we also do it to the intake? Making the intake manifold larger? Like buy a b16 intake manifold, cut the flange off and weld a 7afe flange on it? Wouldnt it work? and if it would would it even be worth the money/time spent?

with the minimal work i've put into my 7AFE its alot more fun to drive, its not a bad engine. its just not meant to be what its not meant to be. its designed to be relatively effeicent and have a long lifespan.

I second this. I have a 5sfe, and it's fun. My buddy Miro has a ST Celica and he won the regional Solo2 championship in the STS class. He only has intake, header, and exhaust. But he's got suspension stuff too. None of the FE series is going to make a good drag car platform, but they can still be fun. Anyone who says differently is just trying to dissapoint you.
