In every form of motorsport, no matter which engine or manufacturer, the top NA cars in each class run individual throttles (unless class rules specifically prohibit it) for a reason.

Having wasted way too much money on cars already in my life I will say one thing. DO IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME !!! There is nothing worse than having to do things over and over again because you tried to take the cheaper but not as good option. 9 times out of 10 it turns out to be the wrong decision. And in turn you end up spending more time and money than if you'd saved that little bit longer and bought what you really wanted the first time.

In other words don't take short cuts because they more than not don't pay off.

Well said Darren.

Thats what i think and say when i post anything on here, but others seem to argue with little to no substance to their arguements or it seems just for the sake of it, and in the end, as you say, you get what you pay for or what you put the time, thought, R&D and research into.

Just wondering if the hayward itb system will fit under the hood of my K SWAPPED EG6. And it is also possible to run an airbox without alterations to my hood. So before i send myself broke. Maybe someone somewhere knows, or knows someone you runs this System would you please care to share some Info with me.

Kind Regards

The Hayward system will fit under your EG Chassis.
In regards to fitting an airbox, and not modifying the bonnet, an off the shelf one will not fit, so you will have to custom make it. but there is not sufficient space to desgin a decent box anyway

hope that helps

Well thats my philosophy, im in the R/C (radio control cars) scene, That car you see in my Avatar cost me around 5K. I done the cheaper option before but you find yourself and you find yourself just stuck behind the top drivers. And then you end up buying the good shit. Not only that you wasted time and money. but in a way its a good learning curve. You really cant start with the top shit cuz by the time you learn to use it its due for a new one. you get my drift.
But i dont like 2nd best. Cuz it just doesnt give you that satisfaction.eg you buy Tag Heuer but its fake, does the same thing but it doesnt give you that satisfaction has having a real one.

There is a redesigned Jenvey inlet manifold but we haven't tried one on an EG yet. It's also designed to use the stock power steering location and drive belt system, so it works fine on DC5's etc.

We've also got a new slim line Pipercross air box on the way. Might be worth a look.

Your probably going to be better off getting something custom made that seals against the bonnet and uses the bonnet as the top cover. You could still run a CAI as well.

Those times are fake

We are only shit stiring..

Dont worry we are still running 1:10's with the b20

back to the topic,

Haywards itbs are the shit, worth every penny if you can get them at a good price
