if you fit any of them you will have to run side fed injectors

I had a 105 fitted on my old engine converted with a modded Cossie fuel rail to run top fed injectors, otherwise like Crazycage says you have to go side fed injectors, which isn't a major problem but a little harder to source.

A 130 inlet is supposed to flow very well in boosted applications from what I understand.

Not normal injectors basically, as the name suggests they are fed fuel from the side and look smaller.

There's a few options, each with plus and minus points. All the basic info you'll need is here:

The rs1800i HO inlet is pretty good, or how about the focus rs inlet if you dont want to spend loads on an area 6?

i hardly find Ł750 for a inlet provern to over 500bhp loads of money , now the jenvey one is very nice but starting from Ł1000 upto Ł3000 for itb now that is expensive. i used a rs1800 high output inlet on my 300bhp conversion and was fine, the next was area six inlet which is a league of its own and now iam running the jenvey which we will see how good it is soon

cheers paul

That is alot to many people these days, even though the power to be had from them is good. I've got an area 6 to go on mine, cant wait to fit it because it is bonkers with the rs1800 inlet anyway
