I'm sure I remember someone saying that somebody on here modifies plenums. I'm finally accepting that I'm just going to have to get a metro plenum and have it modded but trying to search for someone who mods plenums on google is coming back with alot of utter wank.

So, does anyone on here do or know of anyone who can mod plenums? Please? :)

I agree with Tom, even if you dont need the inlet on that side Nics plenums are worth it just for the bling factor

The inlet needs to be on the opposite side and in all honesty I don't think my welding or grinding skills stretch that far :(

Anywhere that fabricates stuff will be able to make one no problem, any size or shape you want.

Shape and size isnt important. The restrictor is.

When I got one made....17 years ago ( YIKES!!!! ), I didnt keep the restrictor. Had such a nightmare getting enough fuel into the engine after that. But where there's a will there's a way !

it was just a plain rectangular box, with the intake at the same level as the carb mouth, on the same side as the carb

speed didn't kill me, but taxation probably will

Now, at the risk of sounding like a right dumbarse, do I need a bleed valve on my plenum?
