thinking about this for a x14xe with powerbox

first of all is it worth doing? will the management be able to deal with it and will it give any gains?

secondly is it physically possible? not dug out the TB i have to check its design.

thats the kinda thing im wanting to hear. didnt know if it was worth it. plus i realise any big changes will just screw up the mix as the sensors will be calibrated for standard TB

1 or 2 bhp probably and hammer to petrol! really wouldnt bother, you will also probably gain a flat spot with a filter, best thing to go for is the standard airbox with a decent panel filter, that way you reduce any heat soak
