gsxr tb's can be fitted to a standard manifold cut down - see calvinx archive who has done this.
my qed bodies are 45mm. i *think gsxr bodies are 42mm which should flow enough for upto 250bhp imho
beware, I've got yellow skin

42 mm, the GSR-R 1000 ones? Or 1100?
OK, seems like a good idea, if I can find any TB:s...
My LET source wants £1000 for his engine, but I am reluctant. Does it work at all? State?

Calvinx made his own steel manifold in the end as the standard manifold does not lend itself to being (easily) modified for the GSXR TB's very
well.

OK, the rubber hoses looked pretty strange...

Maybe just a uprated intake with funnels, plenum etc will do the trick? Cant see the advantage with TB:s, its all about flow, anyway
