    depends if the car is turbo or not. either way you'd need the manifold ported and head work done to get anything out of it.

    I think it would be good with all the other mods done first like port and polish, port matching etc. But I think its mostly HOC (hand on c0ck). I have also seen these manifolds floating around and have thought about it but I don't really see any major benefit over using an XF TB

    there is no gain unless you have cam, head work and computer, or at least computer cause it's still gonna suck in the original amount of air, it just gives it the ability to suck it more.
