not fitted to my cossie but i have the spare off my 911sc which flows marginally less-same fittings
would certainly flow for a stage 3/4 anyway with correct wiring

Hi Col

But why would you want to?
You can buy a genuine 044 for £150, the 044 quoted figures are well below what they'll actually flow and will last forever.
Where as the so call 044 equivalents figures that try and match an 044 are at their limits.
So for £150 and the sake of a possible melted engine I wouldn't fit anything else.
I take it, it's for a Cossie btw?

Rich
