Slightly off topic, wasnt the WSR BTCC engine a 2L. Just wonder how the performance gains of the plenum are effected by the chance in capacity. Would be interesting to design a plenum optimised for the 2.5l and see how the two compare. Only say as its something I've been learning the science behind this year.
It seems to produce power for which i'm suprised tbh. I'm not a fan of the design and feel the trumpets are to long for proper air flow to the front cylinders. Looks like it does make power though.
If I was going to design a vis free plenum I'd go for a more tubular design with the throttle body at one end more like the Alfa V6!!
Well done on the result
