It's cool, I wanted to see the how many supported this idea anyway. It's great for FI people but we definately hope we can design it for NA people to get good gains and in turn, be ready if they go FI.

btw, I ran 13.3 in the 1/4 on bad street tires and a 1/2 tank of gas. I think with drag radials and less gas in the tank, i may hit 12.9 **fingers crossed**

I think my Z would of been 12.9 or less Justin I ran 13.2 with just a cat back so its in reasonable now with your tuning you have from me.




Sorry Bobby I wasn't going to say any names they did that for me I guess now you know you have market

It's happening. My question was geared towards what people think of the design. Is this pleasing on the eyes?

Does everyone ONLY care about gains?

What gains would make you decide to get this regardless of how it looks?

What gains would make you decide to get this if it just looked bad ***?

Looks great. I HOPE it's produced at a reasonable price that justifies the quality, craftsmanship, and the gains. If it can be around 400-600 dollars, they have a buyer

The price point is completely unknown right now however, I can tell you that it will be more than $400.00. What people don't understand is that casting is expensive and that is why even after 7 years the DE plenums are still $800.00 - $2,500.00.

When we get further a long an estimate price point will be announced and possibly a group buy for the first batch.

Why would someone pay that amount of money for no performance gains?
