ey up, friends.
If you're interested I e-mailed the seller about the efi intake.
Basically I was asking what the diameter of the air intake aperture was. I was bothered that it'd be too small for the Delorean considering that the manifold was pulled off of a 2.5L engine and the Delorean was a stock 2849cc.
I got this response, if anyone's intersted (I know people off this forum have already bid :p ):
"Hi Dave,
The air intake (throttle body) is 55mm which has proved effective in powering a certain 3.0 PRV I know of to 330BHP, so absolutely no problems with the Delorean’s 2849CC. I had planned on fitting this to my own 2849cc odd fire PRV (same as Delorean) albeit with wilder cams and higher comp ratio, but have decided to fit a 3.0 engine and twin turbocharge instead.
The 55m throttle body is fitted to every Renault Variant of the PRV which includes all naturally aspirated engines in the range, and they all make considerably more HP than the D engine with this.
The 55mm throttle is just about perfect for the D engine...it's tried and tested!
Thanks"
55mm intake against 80mm of the stock D.
Discussion?
Am I an idiot for assuming that a 55mm aperture on the intake on a 2849cc engine would make the stock Delorean more asthmatic than usual?
cheers.
EDIT: 80mm across
