Any idea what kind of gains the RBC K20 Inlet Manifold gave? Obviously it's all relative to the rest of the spec...
Cheers bud!!

It's a difficult one as I also enlarged the throttle body at the same time etc. I don't think honestly it gave any more gains than a Euro-R or Skunk2 H22 manifold would give tbh, it helped her breathe a lot better and made good improvements over the stock H22 I had on before (albeit with deleted IABs which I'm selling currently), about 15bhp I guess but made more in the mid-range. Didn't do anything for the torque interestingly.

Being subjective, for the cost and hassle, I would recommend other inlet's. I really went with the RBC because I got a great deal from Rosko, I was in the US at the time so got delivery for free (brought it home in my suitcase haha) but mainly because I wanted an empty looking bay and the way it points 'down' really helps with the look I was going for in the engine bay at the time. Hope that kind of answers your question lol
It does indeed and just what I wanted to hear as well ;) ... No major benefits over an ATR inlet which is what I already have modified and lined up to go on my big build :lol:

It's always good to be different though 8)

This is awesome, I went from a Sol to a Lude, hence the name. The Sols are so much fun and you have done what can only be described as a match made in heaven...should be interesting in the winter. As I remember the Sol B16 DOHC was great in the snow really easy to handle and fun for a few spins.
