Martin (and Ian@Racetek) had the Mountune rollerbarrel inlet.

That is a slide throttle inlet which ive never seen on a cossie before TBH

Thats nothing like the moutune roller barrel inlet!

It is exactly what it says on the tin, its a slide throttle inlet for a YB engine, produed by BBR, though god knows how many exist!

Please don't anyone buy this with the idea you can put it on your marelli managed car and just jump in and go! They're very difficult to setup so you've been warned!!

Looking at the other things the seller has for sale, looks like he's been rumaging in some old parts bin and fished out some WW2 garrett turbos too! Bet some plum off here bids on them too thinking they can just fit it on their cossie!!

That T4 looks aicient, "T5" just as much so, but the GT42 could be promising depending on ex housing a/r (still too big for a cossie tho), and with the right setup that slide throttle inlet is pretty bloody special still.

I thought Martin Hadland was selling this on ebay a few weeks ago, could have sworn Spadge had a bid on it.

I believe this was made for the normally aspirated saff they ran in the 91 bttc
