I dont like to judge other peoples work but is it me or are these just terrible? Will they even work?

 

A guy sells them on the famous facebook, id like to hear other peoples opinions.

yea terrible

Theyll work, as in itll run, will it make a power curve than standard? Debatable!

 

Looks like an 8valve tu setup, which works far better twice as long as the angles are far shallower.

would they work better as cup holders?

Hmm, silicone pipes and hose clips, Unequal length inlet tracks, Nice

Where do the injectors go

[kyepan 291]

really nice bodies - the klein bits - very well made.. But the manifold reminds me of sarty's old home brew one, no slight on that though, as it was totally home made and a good effort. He saw 40 more bhp when he switched to a nicely curved, proper length, well sealed manifold.

 

Klein bodies are cheap to pick up from ebay, they are from a gsxr IIC.

 

I think colin satchel may make proper manifolds for those.

In the standard tu position, or in the bodies.

Keihin

 

I believe rich used the same bodies, just changed the inlet, off a triumph so a little larger than most gsxr units.

So you bolt the flange of the manifold to the cylinder head - there is then a load of weight hanging off it in the form of the throttle bodies and trumpets. Will they not just fall off over time as the silicone hose/hose clip set up is not just ugly, but not structurally strong either!?!?!

 

Looks like a total lash-up. Why not just use duct tape and be done with it?

He's charging £550 for this! I nearly spat my morning tea at my screen when I first red it.

He's gone on to say why spend £1000 on jenveys and £600 with sandy when you can buy his setups!

Can anyone confirm the price of sandys and colins tu throttle bodies?

[welshpug 1,657]

circa £600 IIRC.

 

For a DCOE setup using a Satchell engineering arrangement and some jenveys, £700.

 

got knows where he gets the £1000 for the jenvey setup, they are indeed near that if you pay full retail and buy a filter, backplate, fuel rail, fuel pressure reg, all parts that he does not even include himself.

[stef205 92 1 Cars]

So there bike body setup is around £600? If that's correct why would you even bother with some thing like that!

I know nothing about this stuff but that does look very like the "robot" my 3 year old made at nursery on Monday. I told him it was brilliant.
