    I have done a lot of searching but came out empty handed, so here goes.

    Can you change the Testarossa's inlet manifold and plenum with the inlet manifold and plenum of the 512TR's? I know the Plenum is inlet manifold specific.

    You will need to replace the HP fuel lines and possibly the whole air intake / filter system as well. There may be more.......:(

    Hi Nico, I think basically the lay-out of the Testarossa and the 512TR/M block / engine is the same ...

    But not f.i. the electrical system ECU's+ pumps, the fuel system, and a lot more...

    What do you have in mind ... ?

    Hi Mel, I was thinking that the 512TR's intake and plenum will look very nice on a Testarossa with the norwood see through engine deck. It will update the vehicle's looks a lot especially with 512TR wheels.

    At this stage it would appear that it is not economically viable though.

    I know there is one fchatter out there who has installed 512TR intakes onto his Testarossa, I don't recall what he did for the fuel system though.
