it it worth matching these inlets?

[Martin_172]

had the inlets off the ph1 yesterday for a look to see what they were like, now i remember my ph2 172 inlets being much much worse than this before they were matched. the question is, is it worth matching these ones?

lower manifold

top manifold

 

[Gray]

Yes.

 

[jack_davey]

it's where they meet the head that makes the biggest difference and you havent pictured them from this angle.

 

[Russ_16v]

Yes 100%, the matched ones will be enlarged to the size of the gasket

 

[fUbAr]

yes.

 

[Martin_172]

but i thought they wern't enlarged to the size of the gasket, i thought a step was left?

 

[Gray]

a 20 tho step down iirc!
