doesn't really matter as long as you pipe them in correctly.
i have a frst one and it works well enough but is a bit small if your going for big power imo.

The cars pretty good performance wise imho compared to other escorts but its also a reasonable spec.

I've no idea if the adaptor plate restricts it to be honest. I simply used it because I had a ported MFI head already and did not wish to spend money on buying and porting a EFI head.
