Mike, will there be a plastic option? I'm just thinking about the heat here and how that would affect the metal pipes. Could always use heat reflecting material/foam though so not necessarily a problem.

Nope, I don't have the $50K+++ to get those molds done, sorry. The reality is under full spool there's no time to heat the air from testing I did with my RAISS intake back in the day for the Impala SS

I figured it would be up there in cost. Good to know it wont hurt out here in this "dry heat"

Really curious to see what the intake does power wise. Definitely consider the meth tank as it makes installation almost done. Unpowdered coated, the cost will be how much? 200$ more than other cold air intakes would be like 550-600?

Still working on this, the heat has everything delayed here, for some reason my fab guy doesn't want to work in his garage in the heat.... :D

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Excited to see it and hear how it works out.  I hate the bends in the OEM intake and adding a simple place to add a Meth setup seems like a BRILLILANT idea.
Best part of all is I LITERALLY just made my last alimony payment today, so cash will be loosening up after I deal with Christmas.
