I am dubious how it would help given that the inidividual fingers of the inlet remain unchanged. What bottleneck has been mitigated by increasing the size of the main chamber. Discuss...

Thanked 579 Times in 486 Postslooks like the 'fingers' have been ported to their increase internal diameter. the volume of air after the throttle body will still have substantially increased so there will be some change, be it better/worse, in power.
edit: It looks damn good aswell!It's a 5 Cylinder Orchestra!

Thanked 1,398 Times in 1,121 Postsi personly think it would of worked better with trumpets inside and also the constant diameter cant be good for a airflow.

Thanked 211 Times in 181 PostsAre you thinking of trying your hand at making one like in your first post??!!
What is the principle of how it works? Does it simply let more mixture in, so makes more power? It looks like one of those things that would only be beneficial with a host of other mods as well....I dunno? Looks shiny though

Thanked 1,783 Times in 1,506 PostsYou can tune the runners on the inlet for more torque or more top end .normally longer for torque and shorter for bhp .i put longer ones on mine because I want more torque were my mates 940 has got short ones for more high reving and topend .
