Nice should be bit quicker than your average 998 then and still nice and drivable, the reason i asked about the inlet mani was that it looks like the carb is quite high up and could give clearance issues? It may just be me though!

Yeah that's what we thought when we just bolted it on the engine..

We have already modified the bulkhead to allow it to fit.. we will have to wait and see if it fit's properly!

Stick a couple of silver ram pipes on mate!! That engine looks f*****g awesome!! I might have to steal it tomorrow when I come down!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ScottyBoi]

Yeah i am going to get some Trumpets put on it!

Haha Dan.. Your engine looks amazing as it is

[george91]

Not ram pipes on a road car, think of all the crap that could get sucked into the engine! Go for a K&N, the bigger the better ideally.
