PLENUM

Out of curiosity does anyone have a picture inside the plenum of the Black Top ?
Gee if anyone can explain why given the RED TOP and the BLACK TOP are vertually the same why they would hace different volumes of air ?

Send a message via ICQ to Celica RA45
the auto black top is the same as the red top motor the manual has higher comp and bigger and lighter valves and also has a higher red line as well 7800rpm
the difference is most likely a extra cam control ,bigger butterfly as well and the different exhaust header
altezza1
its roughly the same size with ram tube runners like the red top

Yep trumpets in it.

Straighter intake runners.

It has a resonance chamber built into it as well, presumably tuned to eliminate a dip in the powerband or something.

Made a thread about difference in measurements etc a while back
