yes mate, have them in stock, we have fitted some dbilas tb's onto them and they worked well. you do need to modify the fuel rail and tap the injectors into the tb's but nothing a good engineering company cant do for you, we did ours with a stand drill, took 20 mins.

the inlets are £180 inc Vat and make a big difference to performance. mine gained 12bhp and 8lb/ft of torque by fitting it. others have shown similar results

no, they are not available off ebay, they are custom made to our spec. they come with a 40mm port size but they need to be enlarged to accept bigger sizes, will allow up to a 48mm body to be fitted.

for the dbilas tb's does the port sizes on the inlet need to be enlarged to about 45-48mm since thats the size of the butterfly valve? if i find out how to modify the fuel rail myself and if it runs with the plenum (until i get money for trumpets and a new management system) il be contacting you dave about getting the inlet in the near future.
