CNC machined inlet

[Clio Nabz]

Hi guys is it worth doing this even if you have the RS stamped inlet?

I did read that there can be a little more to be machined off even the rs inlet

Seems like a lot of work for not a lot of gains to me.

I could be proven wrong though

nah a waste of time

Go for it.

Nice gains from matched inlets, nothing big but you do notice bit more torque mid range.

Ms custom engineering had mine from there

My car made 189.3 bhp on the rollers just wondering if the machined inlet would knock it to 190
(I know chasing numbers and all that)

A few hundred quid for 0.7 horsepower mate. You must have too much money

I put matched inlets on the cup.After they were fitted,I was overtaking lambos,cosworths,skylines with ease
Only thing I couldn't overtake was Marjorie on her twin turbo jet packed zimmer

She runs slicks though doesn't she?

Every graph I've seen that's had them on there is a noticeable lump of torque mid range and they hold a bit more as well. Should have a couple of graphs but away for few days, will see if I can dig them out when I get back.

Gains were only to be had on the Ph1 inlet, the later ones flowed fine.

IIRC we had a trader on here a while back who did cylinder heads and porting, he saw no real gains on the flow bench doing them.

 

[imprezaworks]

Looked good though

I wouldn't even bother.

only one i can find has got three overlays on it so quite hard to make it out, will try and get some sorted but will confirm decently matched inlets do make a noticeable difference, was sceptical at first but spoke to chris at efi about them the other year and he said he'd seen differences with them as well.

not massive gains but i'd say worth doing.

I've got it ordered so I'll see what happens, turbo kit next year I think

Where are you getting them from mate ?

That's where I had mine done top quality work I wouldn't recommend anywhere else plus max is a top guy
