Bought a Mantzel Powerbox ready for when i have an X14XE dropped into my car (improvement on the 1.2 8v that i have now)
Should i keep it like this or polish it up, not too sure on the airbrushed effect. Thoughts?

These powerboxes... They don't look too technical... Do they replace the whole manifold?

Can we borrow the powerbox to copy the dimensions and rip off the design?

so is this like a powercap thingy, like the m-tech ones?
because that doesn't look too technical either?
btw, i'd polish it, the airbrushing looks lame. but then again, i'd personally wouldn't be bothered because i'm lazy.
