You could go for a more than agressive cam profile as i belive Mattb ran 274's in a GSi with standard bottom end?

He might as well go mad on it then tbh mate he has most of the essentials altho i would swap the dlbas for a lexmaul so the power isnt all the way after 7K

considering that inlet cost patrick £1,100 i don't think it's worth it ...... would like to see how it differs from the Lexmaul as that bolts to the orinigal inlet where as his bolts to what looks like throttle bodies ??? you should see it

Yeah i've seen one before really does look like tb's?

The thing is they have Dlbas good BHP results but its always at the top end where you dont benefit unless it has a 7.5K raised rev limt.

Be interesting to see how it does though. Got to say big fan of lexmaul inlet after being in JRs car majorly improved midrange grunt even on standard engine management
