I was amazed when I saw this. While it would mean removing the OEM intake manifold, it surprises me that someone has done this.

The someone in this case being RPW in Aussie land. Wish I still lived there.

I wonder if we can have this made and shipped to us? Possibly as a group buy? Boy would that be kick ass!

Im sure they have been. But not everyone here has been around for a loooooooong time. Get my drift?

I've seen their Quad TBs. I wonder how much more business they will get if they setup their sales to cater to other parts of the world as well.

Anyone is Australia interested?

Who says they won't sell to you?

I've seen both of those setups since 99 also. But they never apealed to me because they're hard to control without a standalone, and still don't put out as much as a turbo.

yep, I seen those before. From the placements of the filters, it looks like it's sucking in twice the amount of hot air too wink1.gif

A twin tb setup is no good unless you have very agressive cams. Too much flow at the expense of velocity will make you slower. Even if you have access to twice the amount of air, the engine suction power is divided by two.

Do you think it would be worth it to get the twin 63mm TB setup for going NA?

Yeah man Ive seen that ALONG time ago as well. Ive also seen the DYNO graph. They have good top and bottom power but from about 2500rpms to about 4500rpms it bogged REALLY bad.

I agree,...

Dual TB setup is mainly for NA setups...
