Im considering making up a version of the mantzel power box style inlet manifold replacements. It would see the same gains as the mantzel power box, come complete with instructions and all gaskets, bolts etc for easy fitting. Could be powder coated any colour or polished stainless.

Should cost less then £200, depending on what the interest is.

So who would be interested?

It should perform virtually identically to the mantzel. With the advantage that because it will be custom machined you could fit any (ie bigger) throttle body to the end of it.

Not got them done yet. Should be able to keep viper, might have to mod the pipe a bit though.

Should give the same gains as the mantzel, ie 20bhp ish.
