Nope, air filter off and in from the side or two bolts and let the undertray drop enough to get in there.
If you do want to remove it for any reason it is fully o-ring sealed hence no gaskets to replace or similar. Just bolt on/bolt off as required. O-Ring sealing for induction systems is used extensively on endurance race cars and in various OEM applications as if done properly it ensures a perfect seal again and again with no risk of gaskets being incorrectly installed, pinched etc.

DBW has always had an advantage - it's just that most don't understand it. DBW allows much tighter control of transient throttle conditions, much more controlled torque reduction for Traction control etc. etc.
The fact you can't snap one open like you can a cable body is not a disadvantage!

mini-valver
Crikey, this really does sound like a serious piece of kit.
Thank god for page 4 of this thread. Up to now i was under the impression this was simply a bolt on plenum onto the existing inlet as per mini valvers design
Existing inlet?? Behave!!
Orignal lower half...
Mine....
Whatever happens with pricing on these F4R ones, they will be bank with there money. How can someone say that it should be under a grand when they work in a post office and have no idea how things are designed, tested and made. People are morons, lol.
roffle @ morons. I could knock one of those up in my shed tbh
Depending on final figures of course, but if it's less than 2k it'll still be the best pound for power modification. It's a gap in the market too imho.
It sits inbetween the usual bolt ons of exhaust/decat/filter etc and the more major work of ITB's/Turbo etc.

Mini-Valvers setup was by Ben at AWT - essentialy it's the forerunner to the F4R setup Ben and I are working on now.
Mini's engine with that inlet and some very mild cams was generating circa 100bhp/litre specific output. Which gives you some idea of the area we're aiming for with the F4R manifold.
Regarding price it'll be a lot, lot less than the £2K Laingo mentioned..... we're engineers not coke dealers

Chaps - if the 197 setup looks like a go-er then we'll need a standard car and a car with a set of cams just like we have done with the 73X engine package. As such we'll call you ;-)
73X is the priority at the moment though and once completed we'll look at 197 setups. One project at a time LOL
