I have to admit this is a little surprising. We were working on an arrangement for me to do a comparison vs the NISMO R-Tune intakes as well, but after weeks of communication back and forth and a couple lengthy conversations with John @ Akuma, I got a message the other day saying I could purchase a set for $489 + shipping... The whole idea was to test them for results for the community without having to lay out $500+ of my own money, I guess maybe the price of components and labor just got to be too dear for them to afford to send out sets for testing purposes... Happens sometimes when a company is small. There may also be a communication disconnect between John and his staff, he's a super busy guy and may not have had the time to communicate all of the arrangements he had in mind to his staff.

Anyhow, I am sure we'll get some results soon from folks who have bought these intakes and that they'll be better than the Stillen units. Just have some patience guys. Myself, I'll be engineering my own solution. Something in carbon.
