This is for a custom manifold, so the fitment is not an issue... more thinking of cable fitment and clearance etc.

I will do the new intake manifold, with 4 port water injection, and tune it nice and safe, then maybe a JM cam and that will be about it for me in terms of mods... I need to put money into house and 993 plans!

I have a stock Thottle Body for sale, if you want to use it as a core deposit or to experiment with.

I have some 65mm throttle bodies that have been modified to work with the 951 manifold and cable – they use a different TPS that won’t work with the DME (works with the Tec3 and other stand alones).

It gives a very different throttle feel!

And I will still work and tune 951's since my tuning company is specialized in these lovely cars

But the market is pretty small and I need a more suitable all-year-around car (Sweden has winter like 7 months a year) so I'm probably going to build a heck of a Impreza Sti and modify every part of it.
