I think a lot of the time, people use enormous plenums not only because they're shiny, but also because being big is an easy/lazy way to even up flow, as well as mask other deficiencies in the intake system. With the RB26, for example, the intake system presumably underwent a lot of development on the flowbench, then dyno etc. to come up with that shape - and many will testify that it works great, even on engines making huge power. Meanwhile others will rip it off, and stick a massive shiny box on there with a single throttle up front, often because they couldn't tune the thing Very Happy

On my 4AG now I'm using 20v throttles, and have just finished making my plenum. It isn't a very large item (although it IS somewhat shiny.... damned aluminium!), does use bellmouths and will be turbocharged. I'm going to be using an idle speed controller, and plan to run the booster off of number 4. The cams are 280. I'll letcha all know how it goes WHEN it goes... Hopefully only a week or two away now!

Pictures bitch!
