    Idea just struck me

    Get 2 if you can .... Cut both in half ... Join the 2 throttle bodies halves together ... Presto ..... Instant Left & right hand intake openings with butterfly controls

    Throw the left over "Non throttle body halves" in the bin


    Just a thought only

    They really look like they were made for this dont they. Except they'd also have a couple of air/water coolers hanging off the side being fed by a pair of turbos

    Bit of useless information for those that didn't know, the twin throttle body used in the groupA commodores of the late 80's early 90's looks remarkably similar to that of the rover intake...

    Mmmm ... I feel as tho I arrived at the party a day late




    Do you want to achieve air balance to the tubes only ... or are you thinking of something else?
