With the 50-50% rule, some manufacturers seem to use that (like the mirage - what plenum!)

I beleive that plenum size depends on the runner length and diameter, also depends on whether your after torque or power. I small plenum will increase torque as it increases the velocity of the air, a large plenum will offer no restriction so good for top end power.

I guess the only real answer is experimentation. Make a large plenum, then 'tune' it by filling the plenum slowly with something to reduce its internal size.

Ultimately you want variable runners like the mazda quad rotor sliding trumpets. Or even what most manufacturers do is to have a secondary chamber in the middle of the runners and a ECU controlled butterfly to direct air to or around it.
