has any seen the new inlet manifold by reagal and eds for a c20let. If so what are your thoughts and is it worth £735?

I think they must be trying to recover the costs of getting it cast, well overpriced in my opinion. If your running 500hp though then money clearly isnt much of a constraint so a few people will probably buy one, that and if it does what it says for big power motors.

Looks really good imo, and gives good bhp gains on both the let and XE! Shame its so high in price, :(:thumb::D

Not worth it - Regal shouldnt be approached, unless you want your tyres replacing or similar - even then, I would keep an eye on them.

ive heard horror storys bout regal from alot of peeps. im sure the nortec one is about 800 notes too, so sounds like regal have missed the point....

dont waste your money matey, standard ones good for silly power anyway...
think around 400bhp but theres some crazy dude on MIG with 740bhp in a LET with standard inlet manifold...how true this is i dont know but have a look....

EDS is wellllllll worth the money though...he he he

If your building a high spec let you get a proper inlet, not a case cheap regal jobbie.

700 in an omega, you can see its a custom inlet.

in all fairness, if its only going in a nova, uprated internals and a good management/turbo/intercooler will give you over 400bhp set up properly....

what is the need for the inlet mate??? is it just to be different???

Better case and such, to give improved air flow with better past ways.
