Vary clever indeed. That is actually an ecotech manifold with a different plennum by the looks of things. It's obviously been done properly (i.e been casted from a mould)

Interesting to see how they perform B)

yeah, from what the seller says in his little bit... you buy just the top half, and that bolts straight onto your standard lower part of your manifold...
it uses two V6 throttle body's too.
sounded like a pretty cool setup... a tb on either side though would be cool...... twin turbo's anyone?
i can see it now... two turbo's either side of engine... two small water/air coolers behind each headlight (relocate battery)... pipework goes out of turbo's to space behind headlight, then up into the plenum...

righto, whatever............ dreaming.

Damn... you got me thinking again now!!!!


Changing the plenum on mine is easy! I was thinking Quad throttle bodies on a twin turbo set up :D

maybe....
it'd take a pretty serious engine to need that much airflow...
