Message the air comes in both inlets (which are the longer parts of the plenum), mixes together as it would in a X-pipe and then splits back towards both throttle bodies?
What are the advantages of this?

PS: Before you call me an assclown or tell me to toss your salad, I really mean what I said, I just wanna know how this works...I'm not attacking or critisizing in ANY way Ash! =)
