A plenum will give you better spool up, better power at less boost and reduce the need toupgrade the turbo as soon that's what I thought........

A plenum will give you better spool up, better power at less boost and reduce the need toupgrade the turbo as soonAgreed. Throttle response is improved dramatically.

I don't see how they would. Isn't the whole idea of a plenum to shorten the pipework and make everything flow better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
