i installed a rajab plenum and it made my car feel slower and laggier so i put the original back on. The original ( na one ) is a good design with nice smooth turns and its just pipe for christ sake no need to spend $1500 on a plenum

airbags vl that is the funniest thing I have heard to date with regards to the plenum. You sure you used a gasket? those plenums have been proven day in day out that they are above the rest. With alot more low down torque, to accurate air flow, unlike the chopped up abortions people sell with bent trumpets on the inside which fall into peoples engines and break them all the way to a plenum that is all good and dandy with flowing heaps - but is nothing but a baked beans can with runners that leans out cylinders and takes ten years to get a car onto boost. The stock plenum is fine, maybe if your only using it in a 11 - 12 second car maybe you need a new person to work on your car.
