Not bad. You should see a nice gain.

build quality looks shockingly bad on that one, could knock up better in 30 mins with some stainless box section and plate.

still got all the cad drawings that I did, it would be a rather special one, we did build a test one from polycarbonate and put it on a flow bench, it perfomed incredibly well, better flow than a mantzel. we then built a complete replacement with a bottom half to replace the lower inlet but would have been too expensive to build unless it was on a mass scale
could still make some up from stainless tubing if I could be bothered! might have a go one day.....

this is the other design:


would produce very very good gains, someone I know who built one and fitted into his nova c16xe with omex management and 264 piper cams saw 160ish bhp. was very quick as well, not far off the performace of throttle bodies.
