Over head torque control, any ideas?

[kratas]

Hi there guys, have not been on here for a while

anyway, I've had my EL for about 6 months now I would say. Its an EL futura, olympic classic, with S pack, rear wing, nice fat tyres on the back, etc (gona get some photos up soon) it has a custom exhaust system, but no extractors. I was poking around the engine bay (doing the whole 5,000km oil change, coolant, check, spark plugs etc) and I popped open my dads EL fairlane. I noticed that his engine bay was almost empty compared to mine, and wondered why. Then I notice my whole engine bay is taken up by some bolted down piping running from the air intake to my engine, (will get some photos up) I wondered if it was aftermarket, but noticed its a "Ford overhead torque control" now, I have never come accross one of these before, and am fairly new to modding cars, so was wondering if any of you guys knew wtf it is, could give me an idea what it does, and if its viable to still put extractors into my baby if I have that? cheers guys. PS, my EL is manual one of so few in the olympic classic that noone ever beleives that its a manual till I open the door and show em ing_sm
