Vince, do you think the problem with the OEM air intake is that the MAF sensors are so far away from the throttle body? That's a LONG way for air to flow to get into the engine after it has been metered. My thought for a long time is that this is a major problem. What do you think?

Someone had a picture of the twin throttle body (like Johnny 550) ?

Nicely done Vince! I bet that intake makes the Vantage sound even better at high revs!!

Indeed, the car is much better at high speed is impressive! The tires are spinning in second gear over the entire revving.

@Rich and Bruno, you have a MP

That looks really good, and is probably a LOT more cost effective than the GT4 front bumper I just ordered

Thanks Rich

It is a direct passage in the air box, we see the grille behind (I modified the airbox GruppeM, but we can do that on OEM).














(In these pics, the bumper isn't yet pierced, it's old pics)
