I could do with knowing the answer to this.Maybe standard cams are better than 197 cams with the manifold? Would be a good comparison.
Carls giving you a job reference
Looks awesome, any chance you can take some pics of the routing of the boost pipes going to the inlet.Get my cup back from andy tomorrow afternoon, 240bhp 210lbs of torque, took up his stage 1 offer as it was £600 off normal price.
Thought id let him have a play with the inlet to see what him and efi come up with, they too had a ballache with the injectors position. Sorry andy.
Excuse the scruffy engine top, not had chance to paint up yet.

I know its slightly different, but the RS2 was designed to work with a standard engine. Maybe this is the same?I could do with knowing the answer to this.
I'm intending to get one of these manifolds in the future, and with my cambelt now due I need to know wether it's worth chucking 197 cams in at the same time
you will need a 15 degree hose with long legs . it will need to be cut down a little. ASH sell it. you will then also need to cut the bracket a little by the head light.I've just ordered mine, currently in touch with efi to get it mapped, I want the air filter to sit in front of the battery because I have a caf leading there.
I have bda induction kit currently but that just won't fit,
Can anyone give me an idea what kind of hose would suit not sure on the angle of bend I would need as I doubt a straight one would suit.
I have one of these

It fits in front of the battery but seems on the small side I don't want to choke the car and lose power or im I being paranoid.
Straight hose is fine.

Mine has 197 cams but that's on a custom timing setup.
When its time for a belt change I think I'll go back to standard cams/timing with a ported head.
straight fits...
...if you cut 6 square inches of sheet metal off of where the ECU bracket usually bolts to.

done new one with straight as well. the one pictured has got a chunk of the panel cut away as you can see the filter is bloody massive!!
Might not bother some, but it'd be a shame if someone less willing to dremel their chassis bought a straight bit of hose without knowing...
Just an observation, but the throttle body seems to be attached in 3 different positions to the inlet in the images above. Is that likely to matter at all, or have no impact?
Heres my graph, torque is low 😞
