They look absolutely spot on the money you're quoting, easily the nicest looking by far and most polished design too

Can't say yay or nay yet but if these work well and I've got some dosh in a few months I can't see a reason for saying no

Sure thing dude, shouldnt be a prob

I dont think i'm gonna have any ready to sell by pvs. if i did it would be the bare boxes without kits which wouldnt be a huge amount of use to people, trying to organise each stage of the production at work isnt easy (relying on other people to do their part

)
Trying to get my car ready for its respray atm aswell so spare time is running slim

Hoping the boxes to be in the region of 150-160 once kitted up, unfortunatly i wont know for absolute sure until i've kitted the 1st one up but i shouldnt be outside that.

As for fitting, shouldnt be a problem i'd be happy to do it but if its ok i'll see how long it takes to fit one to a dead standard engine before quoting a price. when i first fitted my mantzel i was working dusk till dawn (literally!) but i was improvising as i went along

shouldnt take too long now i know what i'm dealing with

Sorry if it's already answered but,

Will I need a connecting peice of pipe from airbox to inlet?

Does the throttle body need to be modified?

No worries dude

The connecting pipe... yes. reason i'm not supplying one with is because the size or type of pipe people would need would vary depending on if they were running an original airbox or induction kit etc so i thought it better for people to source their own, although i can include recommendations on which pipes to use

The throttle body... yes it does need to be modified but only lightly. As with a mantzel three of the four mounting holes will need to be drilled out. This is only a simple job though, can be done with a cordless drill (although i'd recommend a pillar drill so the holes are drilled square) and it only takes a second as its only cast alloy

Unfortunatly work seems to be just as busy as i am atm

so the inlet is only now gonna be powdered in the next few days

At least this one should be on the car for pvs so you fine (and patient) peepz can come say hi and have a nose

So on there boxes affect how loud the engine is compared to the standard inlet? Obviously one is longer and more restrictive. Just curious
