Can you make replicas of both (423&422) parts made of plastic or whatever material? I am able to reproduce these (here http://www.livar.si/home.aspx) if I get casting model..

Maybe a more pertinent question is, can you? I have the originals. Then what would you use them for?

Don't misunderstand, I'm open to doing something with these so all can benefit.

This company is few miles away from me and they are cast experts. I think this part could be reproduced. I can go there and ask, I know some people there.

I would try to copy turbo rs setup on my never ending build.

I am in budapest till monday, so I can ask about approx. pricing when I come back.

That red 968 Turbo RS does not have a Porsche intake manifold. It's custom. Pretty nice looking, though.

Do you have any more info on how this setup was made? I wonder how TBs were made and where they placed injectors..

Suggest you call Rennsport in New Orleans. They did the engine. It appears the injectors are in the stock location. I have a source for TB's so that's not an issue.

The injectors are in the stock location on the Rennsport, I would imagine they are in the throttle bodies on the intakes MM posted.

What reason would there be to use TBI instead of PFI? I can only imagine it allows for further mixing time of A/F, possibly also more evaporative cooling by the fuel if these pipes were in a turbo application...

I have asked, they estimated it would not be a problem to reproduce these, but initial cost is a killer. It would cost around 2K to reproduce first set, than +/- 200 for each additional. That is without machining.
