I think he means the intake manifold, not the exhaust manifold

It looks the nuts, as I am always trying something different on my car I have always wanted to give one a go....

Never seen another one fitted though! Can they be bought in the UK? I don't remember seeing them available here

It looks like the throttle linkage effectively 'blocks' off the standard turbo entry position

What's the point? There's no performance gain (as far as I'm aware) from fitting independent throttle bodies on a single turbo engine. You'd be better off spending the money on a conventional reversed manifold.
