as per used on the tarmac rs2000 (mk5/6 ib4 engine ?) they worked really well, but they changed to conventional throttle body's for gravel,
something to do with different torque and power in the rev range for the different surfaces iirc !

personally i would have started with a different engine already n/a but i'm sure theres advantages to using the cossy lump.
i didnt get how the throttle bodies worked either till i saw the other pics
where can you get them from and what are the advantages/disadvantages as i can see them usefull in fwd applications where the bulkhead gets in the way??????

my slides were Custom Made by Aaron @ HT Racing in Brands Hatch, so not sure if you can get them "of the shelf" so to speak.

The scort and engine are both pure porn mate, leave it orange, just lower it a touch, then put some minilights on it. Been done before, but works
