I wouldn't bother if you're running less than 550bhp. It makes it really lazy at low throttle, you'de be better off running an EEIV inlet manifold and throttle body. Mine was good for 550 brake and 500 lb/ft of torque, more with a plenum spacer!

Manifold and plenum very little difference, only the throttle body is different. Sorry, no pic as I'm a tosser with computers. Contact Sheady, (07768356204) he has one for sell
