Not sure whether or not this has been covered, but it is sort of on the Perrin site for $162, including a 10% discount.

Not trying to be a killjoy or anything, but $142.99 (As quoted above), stricken by 10% sounds much more appealing.

Replaces the stock accordian type tube and attached resonator with a smooth tube from the airbox to throttle body. The stock intake is a good design this just fixes the main problem with it in my opinion.

For the most part, aesthetic. Smooths out the airflow in that area so there's likely some marginal gain somewhere. You're not going to see 5whp though.

At $128....I'll buy it now.

@PERRIN_Chris my only concern that I haven't seen addressed anywhere yet is whether the question mark design allows for even cylinder filling. Was this tested? To me it seems possible at higher flow rates one side of the manifold will be getting more air than the other.

Pricing updates make it very reasonable. When I went on the site it said it is not currently available. Any ETA on when you guys will have it up for sale?

I like it a lot. Really like the fact they didn't mold in the "option" for noise generator. Most people will delete it, why even bother molding in the little stub at all.. And for $128.70 to delete it and add some color in engine bay, it has my vote.
