I also have been working on making my own custom inlet pipe,I got the samco from Clive and it had the outlets on it so I have cut them off and got some silicone rescue tape and wound the whole pipe so they are now covered over,it isn't finished as I run out of tape but I have ordered some more and will post a pic on completion.

I virtually have all the piece's of the puzzle now so I just need to find some time to put it all together
You'll get there buddy

Well you best had, we've got a meet to go to!

I know bud,I'm seriously getting carried away with this build and I certainly have my hands full to finish it for the prodrive meet
But like I said I will get there and if the under pinnings have to wait until after then so be it.

Don't be so bloody selfish.

It would be nice to see your car on the road rather than as a store for your parts.
