As far as I know the AUIII T-series came with a different manifold and the 220kw were port matched.

all the same explorer manifold, T-Series have a unique one and you have a snowballs chance in hell of getting one of those without either buying a T3 or a T3 complete engine.

Something else worth noting is that the 220kw XR8 lower manifold was modified by Yella Terra to increase the cross-section of the intake runner where it meets the cylinder head.
I've never seen it with my own eyes though. I'd love to know how much it was opened up, because that is the biggest restriction in the manifold right there...
