has anyone heard of or seen walky or VN grp a twin thott manifold replicas?
someone told me that he thinks he sore something in a street commodores magazine. so was just wandering if anyone has seen them aswell?
if there isnt then why the hell not there should be cause i can tell you now that they would sell big. plus look heaps better than anything else on the market.
cheers

i must be out coz ive seen group A throttles and a motec cross ram manifold both in the flesh and the motec looks DESTROY the group a, the group A would be a stock manifold next to the motecs they are so much more sexier
But nah i never seen replica of the group a ones, tho ppl make variants like the ones this guy makes, they perform too as street machine did a review of them and gain nice power and torque with just a swap to them!

just personal choice i reckon they look better with ram tubes off to the side. anway ive found the topbox from gas research so i may go with that and then do a gas conversion.
come's look nice, i like the ones that come out the front so you can have the two polished 3"-4" pipes and pod's on either side of the engine bay!
there are heaps of ttb's out on the market, do your research, some are as cheap as $1500 and flow just as good as the vngrpA's
well reason i ask is because i want the walky or vngrpA's because i have walky wagon. and i know of most of the other out the guy who owns the walky limos make his own after market tt's which are a dead ringer for the C.O.M.E ones but half the price and flow the same.
obviously they are real nice but the problem is they are rare and a collectors item which unfortunately adds too much to their value for what they are really worth. It cant be justified spending 4-5g on the manifoild alone when for half the price you could be getting something that looks and performs as good yet u save a couple of grand to do much better things.
If you do wanna fork out on a real legendary manifold, Ring flowcraft in melbourne or even better go down to the shop and look at their ex-motec crossram manifold! its the sexiest bit of gear ever and at $3300 its a lot cheaper and apparantly they even outflow the group a manifolds, not to mention they fit under the bonnet, and u just cant beat the look of them two throttles going to each side with a pod or nice airbox.. its art!
i just heard from someone that theyre was a lookalike walky manifold. but oh well no one has heard of it so they must not exist so ill do something else.

this 'someone' and his 'thinking' sounds dodgy....
How does the motec one look to this one? i dunno bout this one but it looks sik!! but theres just something about the group a throttle bodies, maybe the way they sit and jus pop out of the bonnet. How much would this one be worth?

thats obviously for a chev, but still it doesnt even come close to the motec!
i cant find one single picture of one on the net anywhere . they're not common
basically it looks a bit like the vn group a manifold, but the top plate has like 3 pieces, has trumpets feeding into the top box which then comes out to the front and has a throttle running to each side of the motor.. it looks sick with a polished top plate or even carbon fibre

Here are some pic of a Motec chev crossram manifold. Not sure if there were one for Holden like this.
