looks just like a banana manifold with the top cut out and the twin throttle plenum part wleded in... unless theres actual proper "tuned" trumpets inside, but thats the sort of detail you pay for with the better manifolds its more than meets the eye.

that trickshift one could have im not sure, but it doesn't mention it anywhere which is a bit of a giveaway as it would be something you'd proudly include in the product description. i know in all the home jobbies ive seen they dont do it, they seem think just whacking on a big plenum with two throttles is the magic formula.

So the walky twins would pass on a vn to vt?

walky twins wont pass epa either unless they are on an original group a ss, when you take your car to a epa inspection you car has to be how it was complianced from factory... if u wana go to an epa test with twin throtts and PASS leegally you would want to get da car adr compliant first which will most likely cost more than a set of twin throttles manifold itself Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

[QUOTE=Sinister] QUOTE] is it normal for the pulley on the blower to face the back of the car? or is this a custom touch, looks better IMHO
