Is any one running a 6 throttle body manifold? I know RPD do one for $1500, and I was wondering if anyone ran them on their E series and reckoned it was worth the cash?

The car you may be thinking about is juliens (N/A power) car its a EBII with the 6 throttle body set up on it his car really goes great it makes a genuine 180rwkw n/a lots of work has gone in to making it as it also has aftermarket computer, vacum tank big cam, etc etc is it worth the money??? it may be a better idea to go speak to EFI hardware down in bayswater they sell individual throttle bodys and linkages that suit the e-series cars. sounds great though and really goes well. tristan

just a question with the filtration.... would you have to run socks like webbers or do you have a air box to go over them?

if the distance between throttle plates and head could be decreased slightly.. and the openings bellmouthed.. these would be perfect to put in a big RB30 style/rajab/bresciani/whatever plenum.

it would be great but those plenums are $$$$, and then the benifit of the six throttle bodys goes out the window as it shill has to travel through the small throttle opening.

there would be no throttle opening if it was a custom made one.. not really a financially viable option but it would look great and pull like a train i would think.
