I got a Reyland 17mm spacer on my 4x4 manifold - excellent product, well priced, no mods needed to fit.

I've got a genuine R&B Motorsport Swedish Plenum with trumpets throttle body and roose hose if your interested?
I've just fitted a Hart inlet to my 3 Door but it's not a straight forward fit to a 3 door you have to quite abit of work.

how much difference did you get between the hart inlet and the swedish and why did you change.....

also how much do you want for the set up and my intercooler is a 60mm and im running standard fuel rail with 1000cc siemens so will it be fine with them

I changed because i'm going for 600BHP and Martin @ Reyland said he wasn't really confortable mapping it with the swedish one.
Still haven't had it mapped yet it's currently with Martin but the engine spec is massively different from when I was running it with the swedish inlet so it would be unfair/hard to compare the two once it's mapped.
The throttle body is modified to 3" and the hose is 3" both ends as well so you might have to get another hose from Roose with a step down.
Your fuel rail and injectors will go straight on thou.



£350 with the hose or £300 without
Cheers Rich
