*** VRP 82mm TB ***
#26
BTW, for all you tinkerers out there... If you want, I can supply the bare 82mm TB and you can make your own plate and modified S/C inlet for a fraction of the cost of the Renntech kit.
Through my source I am able to buy them for a great price. I will sell them bare for $750.
Just in case you dont want to wait until I figure out what direction to take it in.

can someone shed some light on approx. how difficult / how much money this would cost.
I'm assuming there are only a few shops out there that can make the proper plate and help modify the s/c inlet
TIA

Its a MB part right? The wiring is a direct fit without modification?
I guess I jumped the gun a little on the 160mm single blade.....85-90mm is probably good enough HP-wise and is a good trade off for drivebility. Excellent points about a non stock location requiring alot of cutting for a filter and 4 inch tube.
Im sold.

edit: Sorry Kleeman compadres...Just heard from Vadim that it's not possible since the inlet cannot be modified without sending the entire SC unit to Denmark since Brandon is not set up Inlet modifications. The OEM SCs having a separate housing that can be removed and modified but not us.

I may be the guinea pig on this one since he still has my car in the shop.

Did some more digging. The inlet can indeed be removed from the Kleemann sc. The only problem is that there is a O-ring that is approximately 80mm integrated into the inlet. Either we need to get a new inlet and bracket CNC'd (probably very expensive) or the max we can go is approximately 80mm with a machined inlet size to match. I am actively looking into our options and will share any info I get. Even with the 80mm upgrade we should see ~30chp which to me is a significant amount! I dont have the funds to R&D making CNC'd pieces but if you do I will buy the final product off you.
