yeah, I may chip in $1100 for those gains.

But seriously:

"When you consider the overall gains, materials, testing, and who made this Intake, the price won't matter much."

1.We don't know the gains
2. Is the idea that your materials are far superior to stillen? What are these costly materials? It can't be quantity, because your pipes are less than half the piping of stillen's system.
3. Testing? So you do have dyno sheets to provide?

Also, I know it's just Wikipedia, but I found this hilarious:
"However, the term "cold air intake" is often used incorrectly to describe an air filter system with an exposed filter in the engine bay, which actually increases the temperature of the air entering an engine."
