Cut up and upside down rs200 inlet plenum is pretty interesting!

One way of managing to use one and still get it to fit.


Hard to believe it works where it goes 2 into 1 though, the transition looks awful.

But im sure it does if JG says it does!

don't think much of it is rs 200,, don't they run injectors side by side?

The twin injectors side by side sit on the manifold, not in the plenum, what you have there is a cut up rs200 plenum, but not the manifold which is a cosworth aftermarket one.

Here's an original rs200 one in my nova:



He appears to have chopped 2 up, so that he can make it longer by using the left 55% or so from one and the right 55% or so from the other, to make it wide enough to suit the YB

I am sure you will actualy send your pancreas out your arse when you accelerate in that...

Just how fast can you go before internal organs become detached is my question.
