for my 2316 it seems that the stock plenum might be reaching it's limits as far as volume goes.....so, I either fabricate a larger common plenum, or go with individual throttle bodies such as TWM or Jenvey*
single plenum would be easiest, but the individual throttle bodies look better (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) has anyone switched from one to the other on the same motor with everything else being the same??? *Jake Raby is the U.S. distributor of these.... |

My Carbon Fiber tech has been on the plenum for quite some time now.. To do a part like that in Carbon it needs to be "Vacuum bagged" to pull the resin through the part and make it very strong as well as cosmetically enhandced.
It just takes alot of time and money to make the mold.. I have spent 2K on it so far and I have not even seen it yet... It took him over a year to do the carbon Fiber DTM mold. |
