I'll be hitting one/some of you up next time!!!!!!As for size, well, I think it's plenty big enough for my application, so we'll see.

Was pretty easy in the end..I fitted my exhaust I got from Simon yesterday, plenum should get a bolt up tomorrow and hopefully dyno. Looking for some paint, will give it a hit and make it a bit pretty, then all is go..

It would something like a Nizpro unit then...How much did you pay for the lower plenum half?
