I dont know much about N/A tuning but from what ive learned the 'BTCC' style inlet allows for more air flow. Apparantly the inlet was a cheat for the touring cars back in the day. |

It's how it's opened up and then remove all the trumpets from inside then put back together. It's done so you would never know it had been.It costs about £300 to have done I think  |

daveyboy did this not too long ago, 300 quid sounds quite fair given the ammount of labour involved but i do happen to know an engineer that is keen to learn about this malarky |

I think it's cut open along the seam then excess metal removed from within. It's then carefully put back together so as not to be obvious it's been done |

Then you will want a different throttle body and air box  Also if your planning on pocketed pistons go for PT84's may aswell go all out Kent Cams Speak to pete_rallye, he has the yellow one below   ________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

Ill say for a fact it doesn't work as a stand alone modification. It needs the modified or replacement pistons (preferably high comp) and decent cams to match.________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies.

Would your southern England specialist be Brett Simms by the way? And if you want a manifold I'd be happy to make another.________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies.

if i do this i will be pocketing my standard cast pistons to allow optimal timing of 81s, management wise i'm pretty much sorted. i have seen a coupe of people on here are a couple of ponies away from 200 brake so would like to think that with good ecu (and yes, proper mapping) i can crack my goal |

Don't bother with PT 81s fit the 82s and get some Wossners under there. You'll need the extra compression to make high lift/long overlap cams work anyway, so do yourself a favour and don't skimp on the job.________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies.
