Are there any benefits to fitting an RS2 inlet manifold to a homefried 3B engine. Just looking at future mods for this winters SORN period?!!!

RS2 inlet manifold has more volume inside it but beyond that it's mainly cosmetic -
Isn't the ABY inlet-mani the same size on the inside? I'm sure i read it the other night on here somewhere? Plus look at the price the RS2 one's go for............
Just some finishing touches to do nowComment

The ABY and the RS2 are the same volume yes but both are bigger than the 3B manifoldComment

Jamo is right... I don't think the ABY or ADU IM would add much to a stock or chipped 3B... WIth a monster turbo on then a bigger IM will provide less restriction, but I wouldn't bother otherwise. A bigger intercooler would be a better bolt-on tweak to a 3B - and/or RS2 airbox.Paul Nugent
