Individual TB thoughts... Header syyle intake? Crazy Swedes?

Yeah I heard 1.5-2.0 times displacement for plenum volume. What is the calculation of peak torque rpm and runner length? When do I want peak torque ideally?

9M started the development work on a ITB for the 968, check out the following thread, rather long but informative.

I'm not sure 9M made a working prototype, but considerable development has been done.

How did you arrive at 5 litres for the plenum NZ ?
Take note the the requirements for multiple TB's
are slighlty different from running a single TB.
A large plenum is required for single TB wherelse
multiple TB's can use smaller plenum.

1-2 times, that's why I mentioned a least 2-3 litres.
Look at the stock manifold, it does not look like it's
got 3 litres in the plenum. In any case, the sensable
figure should be 2-5 but 5 would mean huge right ?
The SR plenum is very well designed. You can follow
the shape & just adjust the volume.

I just bought and read Cork Bells book. He suggests a plenum size of 50-70% of displacement... hmmm thats against most everything else I have read. I have a great idea on runner design now but a couple of things still remain...
1. What lengths should the runners be for peak torque at 4000-4500rpm
2. What plenum volume
3. Is 43mm big enough for the TB's
4. Where should the TB's be mounted
