I spose the next question is it worth me doin it at this point? I will go the whole hog eventually but id like to try & reach a few mile stones with it first.

The car made no real increase in power. It did however change the torque delivery to decrease it down low and increase it up top. Better for the transmission I thought and made the car more drivable. IMO the only plenum worth fitting for an increase in top power is the nitro because it has it's own short runners whereas all the others usebthe factory bottom runners. I've seen these results first hand on a number of cars. Quite a few cars with the factory plenum have run 10 second passes the fastest f6 used the phase 3 kit with factory plenum.
