Craig,
I manufacture the Predator PnP ECU for the 16v Saxo, and it's ideal for running bodies like these.
I've got a fair few out there currently, a lot of prople on this forum actually, and I've done a few throttle body conversions; so if you've got a 'demo' set I can put them on my demonstrator, do some dyno runs and offer up my opinion on them. I'll then either buy them, return them unmarked or offer them as a PnP kit!
PM me if you're interested. It takes a lot of time and patience to build a strong reputation on here, but once you have they are great people!!
Kind regards
Andy

Hi Andy
That sounds good to me, it may take a while as i'm waiting for 5 sets to be manufactured, but when they are done i will send up a set. We are working on a new method of attatching the whole set up as i know most are not keen on silicon piping.
regards

Unfortunately Craig there are a lot of people selling junk out there and like Andy says it can take time to build up a good reputation. I would love to see your kit on a few cars to get a more subjective view on them as they do look the part

Very interesting kit... Good price too. I used to have a VTR on Jenveys, currently building a VTS track car and after much research i think bike throttle bodies are going to be an option. How long does it take you to fabricate these kits?
The trumpits are a bit long maybe? I would be looking at using ITG indervidual socks, you say the trumpits are hand matched, but if they are too long for the application and then cut to length does this not undo the hand matched work?

Hi
we have re-designed the kit to eliminate the silicon joiners, we will post new images once we have tested them.

Any update on the testing of the updated version? How are they compared to the original version with silicone joiners?
Function over form in my eyes, which ever works better...
