Coool... although looking at that, I think it can be replicated with sheet metal rather easily.

true. u can make it very easily if your nice with fabricating thin aluminum. Also if you want to just make everything at normal angles, this would be a cake for a decent fabricator. My guess would be it be heavier tho.

I like it and would consider it w my vortech kit but I'm worried about water and if it'd cover some area of the top of the intercooler

That's a huge opening. I'm liking the variety of ducts now available. Was the $1600 for the duct alone?

I got the zeek kit on the way. I will do a dyno and write up for it. It looks very nice behind the grill can't wait to see some vids of the sound it creates! Are you planning on changing the tube from the throttle body to the airbox?

I doubt it would affect your intercooler efficiency much if at all. I like that this takes fresh air straight from the open grill while the HKS is from up in the bumper. In reality I doubt that changes the driving experience much but I still prefer it.

All the bugs that would end up in the rad would not glue themselves to that.. You would have to use a power washer to get them off and that would make its way up top.. Not a lot of it but that one asshole water droplet would
