Don't worry bud. Old mate's new plenum is greatly different from anything that we currently have on offer. :D

I think it is a spooling boost like posted above

I just reread his post. Thank you for pointing it out. :D

Every time I have done a bigger plenum swap on spring pressure I have found the boost has changed with a drop as rpm increase. Only a pound or two but I feel you would be better off using some form of boost control to be able to level boost out again if required. I have a spoolinboost plenum you can add to the comparisons if your interested.

We would be more than happy to add your manifold to the list.. I will contact you when when we are closer to performing the testing. Cheers :D

I got sent some pics of the 3D printed plenum today. All I can say is that it looks schmick.. The owner is currently sourcing a cnc to get a billet one made. I am VERY keen to get one for myself, So I've asked him to get a price to get two made...  I believe that the retail version will be cast versions (Alloy, I believe....)  and I have asked him get a price on some magnesium versions, with the view to minimising weight.

 

I'll keep you posted on further developments and release photo's when the owner permits.

Yes. Testing will be conducted in the sunshine state.

 

I know how you feel with pulling the manifold off. I will be donating my Plazzy for the test. I'm not looking forward to pulling it out, as it was a pain in the arse even when nothing else had been installed. I'm really keen to see the results though..
