correct my theory if you will. turbo's were essential invented to over come the restriction in the inlet tract/valves etc by forcing air past?
now i'm sure i'm correct by thinking that for more volume past a fixed size hole more pressure is required. hence turbo's. i realise i can run less boost but the same volume of air if the flow hole/tract in increased by size/flow characteristics. but hasn't this manifold already flowed enough volume at under 2 bar to give 400bhp over in sweden etc ?
