I don't know who made it mate but its 4mm thick stainless steel and it came off a escort cossie and was also used on a escort zetec turbo too .all i can say is I will run the plenum and see what happens and if it does run lean on any of the banks I will sort it mate .im also not using a 55mm tb I'm using a 72mm tb so that should help things .

Yes but the hole is 55mm same as t5 mate and a 960 tb is 65mm but takes a 3in pipe .if the plenham don't work right I can fit a Jenvey turbo plenham that will take the 72mm tb as well .the tb is Jenvey

I'm no expert on the red block, but I'm fairly sure it needs HT leads.
