    VR6s have different induction lengths internally anyway (to do with the VR design of having one head on top of the V, making the engine as compact as it is for its capacity and number of cylinders), I assume the different length trumpets are to cancel this out as much as possible.

    guessing because its a V, 3 of the inlet ports are slightly further away from the front of the car, so to keep all the induction lengths equal.

    225 at the wheels seems a bit low, i presume hes not tuned it at all, because obviously given the capacity it could easily see over 300 at the fly near 10k.
