Nothing like the SFR twin plenum.
We will post a build sheet when the car is finished. Unfortunately the motor and turbo kit were pulled from that car for a customer that wanted it.

This is a Jenvey ITB kit with custom FI boxes. There are no throttle bodies at the end of the plenums...

Unfortunately runner/airbox design was a lot of trial and error as well as best volumetric fitment under the stock hood without altering the driveline angle.

Kool.... Are you going with ID injectors?? If you end up having to get the TC and you have the ID already installed....PnP will be easy
Covered this with Ryan@Forged today. We're going with the ID injectors. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP! Let me know how it goes once you get the TC on-line!

Motor is being stroked as we speak. This is the slow period, but everything should be coming together soon

+1 on the timing cover. Very subtle mod and does wonders for improving the aesthetics under the hood.
