I take it the injectors at the end of the ram pipes will be acting as a second set. How are you planning to control them, and under what circumstances will they be active?

cheers

Dammit!, why couldn't you have built a 6 cylinder engine instead?,lol. Makes for interesting reading though, wonder how much of it I could translate over onto a 6 cylinder lump, still contemplating just tuning the 3.0 engine rather than a T6.

Aftermarket ECU

2 seperate banks that will be faded from bottom to top as RPM increases

Experimentation on the dyno will be needed to get max BHP

The 6 and 5 cyl engines are the same

Everything I have used is available for the 6cyl, even the cams could be made

You could adapt the standard inlet flange to accept spigot type throttle bodies from jenvey.

350bhp plus would be easy nasp on a 6cyl

Spoken to Thomas @ Tibuc for a few years now, nice guy

He know's his machining which is excellent quality but he is very pricey

You should let me make you an inlet system for yours, I've got most of it made up already

Made up of Jenvey Items as pictured with a custom Plenum

Don't say that, you'll get me thinking, can you give me some idea of prices, i.e. what you've ended up paying for the cams, throttle bodies etc..., it would give me an idea..
