Hey Jerry, shot you an email with a question on the intake but I'll ask here too for anybody else curious.
You're working on a carbon fiber version right? If so any idea on extra cost or delivery time?
Trying to decide between glossy black or carbon fiber.

Wow! I get 22.5 MPG luckily on the freeway at 60-70mph with AC off But on the streets under 50mph I average 13-16mpg. This sounds very promising even more now and it yields more WHP at the same time. Its sounds like it will definitely pay me back at the pump via fewer visits weekly...
I am not as spirited driver as Jerry so to yield those numbers must mean this Intake mod works well.

Is that why I passed you the other day on 59 in a cloud of smoke???

Do you guys have, or are you able to do gunmetal as a color? I'm hoping to match my new rims....

I'm thinking about having the intake in blue powder coat to match the rest of the engine.........
Is blue powdercoat possible? Just like in my sig?

After talking to Jerry it sounds like the guy doing the powder coating can pretty much make any color under the sun. I don't have anything blue under the hood on mine but I might go with something along those lines just to make it pop more. Hhhmmm.... Jerry, how much time do we have till we need a firm color picked out with our orders?

I also have the CIII intake and NO, you need the 55 splitter for this; I do NOT believe it will work, but I think its comes with splitter.

Carbon is very costly....haven't got the quote back yet, so it might have to wait until I'm back from vacation.

The only one available as of now is the dual intake setup. I will test the other options when I return from vacation.

Yes, I can make one for you. The pipes will need to be 2.5" vs. 3" to fit in the stock splitter.
The cost will be the same. I actually have 1 set of 2.5" piping at the shop....enough for one kit. If you want it, give me a call.
