I see - but the engine in the above pic is mine. It uses 4 separate air trumpets with an external filter. My engine spec is probably a bit more wild than yours, but it makes 214bhp - quite a big difference. Oh and my engine rebuild wasn't cheap, so reliability is a big issue for me

If you had used individual trumpets and a conventional throttle body system with all those mods above, you'd be looking at 180-190bhp easy. I think this is why some people have referred to your kit as not being 'proper' throttle bodies. What's the point of providing 4 separate air intakes to allow more air (plus more fuel) into the engine if you then restrict it all again by making the engine breathe through one convoluted air intake?


I know, what you mean. But note that in case that I had used individual trumpets without the concoluted air intake, I would need a new ECU which would cost me about 1000pounds, 4 years ago, plus that I would be looking for a higher fuel consumption. Also note that that 4 years ago, throttle bodies were at their beginning and there wasn't any knowledge on them... Instead, I found this kit of Steinmetz that was ready to be fit... I would love running 180 bhp, but I am also satisfied with 155-160
