Default wrc inlet compared to rs 500

whats the difference between the two

like advantages and disadvantages what would be the best one for reliability and power

im looking in the region of 450 - 500bhp from my nxt engine but hi was only going to run 4 greys but heard they max out at 420 i this correct so only option i can see is going 8 injectors

any advice on these manifolds

thanks

1000cc injectors and a spacer plate on a 4x4 or ecc4 plenum
can do the pair Ł420
(spacer and injectors)

have thought about that route

but surely 8 injectors would be better than 4 anyday of the week

my original idea was wrc siamese with swidish plenum but heard it could be a pain to due to the amount of airflow gong through the inlet how true this is i dont know

if you run 4 large ones and one goes down you'll get a missfire.

If you run 8 and one dies, you'll get a melted engine due to a sudden lean condition.

that's how I see it.
