Interest is New Intake Design? Looking for a test car!

^^^ Yep -- the primary goal here is improved flow without sacrificing air temps, with the secondary goals of ease of installation and cleaning.

As to price -- I made a point of mentioning to Swift that it needs to come in around or cheaper than the G3's to be competitive, so we'll see what they can do.

But, yeah -- that thing is a work of art! If they make the plexiglass cover for us, we can admire the lovely work while it's installed.

The real question is whether a cone element can be mated to it or if they can just make a screen for a panel filter. Either should be fine -- guess we just have to see what they come up with.

I'm in for updates.

I always thought the velocity stacks on s2k's were awesome.

remember reading that preludes and s2000s were seeing huge improvements in pedal response.
