I like where you're going, however that assumes that the astronomical price is due to the material (as opposed to the $2400 mark-up).

Carbon fiber is a relatively poor conductor of heat, yet a glass filled ABS type polymer will do the job just as well and cost much less. Carbon fiber is typically used for low weight/high rigidity applications. It's simply overkill for an intake and just more bling factor. It may look nice, but it's not worth anywhere near the 2,749 asking price, especially for the advertised 15 hp. They could use the same mold from the cf piece and use the glass filled abs plastic instead. For what they're asking, you could get the K2 and get much more proven hp.

I wonder how this performs in conjunction with the Renntech box tops?
