Nope, but I guess it is just a matter of using two plenums to make one with dual throttle body adapters. Should be an easy enough job for someone to do at an engineering shop.
I believe you need to ditch the AFM and run two MAF sensors if you go down this path. |

i could possibly do it myself as im a welder/metal fabricator.
i don't have a clear understanding of the MAF sensors what are they? how to install? how to get them etc.
any help would be good |

It has been done. Can't think where I've seen any details, though.
Maybe try www.v-eight.com |

I think these are from v-eight.com as well, do a google search I'd say. Heres a couple of pics(not mine):

I ran dual throttle bodies for a while, still have the manifold up in the shed somewhere.
The power difference is negligible, however the mjdrange response is easily noticable.
It was much louder too.
Absolutely pointless on a stock ecu, as you'd still be sucking it all through a single AFM.
I've got much better photos at home, but this is all I have here

Looks pretty cool! How hard was it to adapt the stock manifold to run dual throttles? |

I had a shop build it for me.
I have some 'during construction' pics, but like the others, they are at home. |

Those pics would be close to 10 years old now, so who knows exactly what happened to the car! |
