they are just to free up the airflow into the intake. the tb is the part that regulates the the air coming in and the plenum is what connects the tb to the intake manifold.

yeah you'd want to buy them as a pair, like one guy said, just get professional products, cheap and well worth it.

I searched and researched everywhere. The C&L plenum is the best for the money.Call them direct for the best price. I also put a 75 mm BBK TB.
