Any firm info' on BenR's 'secret' 1*2 inlet/plenum?

I've been casting a few notes aside each month for a spot of Mr R's manifold matching. I have also been on the lookout for a spare inlet manifold and plenum ready for the work.

Now I have managed to purchase an inlet manifold for which I paid the grand total of £7. Now do I purchase the potentially bargainous plenum I have my eye on ready for the work or do I wait and see what the wizard has in store with his latest creation?

Does anyone have any solid facts on this?

LOL, strangely enough, that did run through my mind after I had clicked post. I have just received a cheeky little PM from an unknown member which has shed a little light on things.

Well enough 'hype' has certainly been created around this new tip top manifold, wonder if it will live upto it's billing?

The new intakes much more expensive than the old one. So people will still buy reworked ones.


well if its gonna give you more power than it might be worth paying the extra, but i'd want to see some before and after results to see just how good it is :)

I think we may have to wait a wee to see what Ben has up his sleeve. I'm going to keep quiet about where my cash will be going as that may give the game away.

I can't handle the pressure any more. He's managed to manufacture a Turbozet with a built in Power Boost Boost valve. If you twist his arm a little he will work you a 'phase 2' which also has an Ecotek valve built in and 3 in line eBay resistors.

he kinda let slip to me a bit - but im not gonna say anything as he obviously didnt mean for stuff to come out
 
lol, sorry guys but i've just been on about a new inlet for years and finally in the final weeks so i dont want it to be spoilt.

All will be revealed soon, it wont be cheap as a single 'item', but then again it wont be expensive for comparative costs vs gain.

I would buy the inlet for £7 if you can!....then sell it when you need too, with the amount that are getting shipped abroad so they dont send back the exhange item.

Anybody who does know, please dont give anything away, there are a few who will be running the first batches and are getting a bargain because of that.

I already have the inlet in preperation, it's the plenum I have my eye on now. Although I think that may be even more of a bargain than the inlet was.
