What's the normal process for enlarging the standard plenum? Is it a case of boring to 72mm and the finding an appropriate butterfly and enlongating the slots in the spindle?

If so where could I buy such a butterfly and is 72mm the largest I can go to?

Has anyone back to back dyno'd standard with enlarged? Joolz?

I've got someone who can make you butterflies, but would probably have to make a batch to make it worth his while. 72mm is good for 350hp without being overly restrictive

We supply these to the trade, normally 71mm , i also have 73mm which is as big as you can safely fit in the RV8 plenum, if you want one let me know.
