None fast enough!
Sorry for the little lapse. I have been out of the office a lot lately, so I have not had the chance to update the thread much. Manufacturing has begun, and got off to a rocky start with a few key bits on the machine breaking! =( We are back at full speed and I will share a quick video and image. We are not sharing anything more detailed until the parts are complete.

Thanks for all the support!

We are getting close to having them actually on the car and running!
Obviously these are just sitting on the stock airbox for now (on a microfiber), but this shows the size and location nicely.
Thanks

Negative, I'm going with a whole new engine build and scraping my VRP 5.7L bottom-end. I just purchased a used 55K but won't be ready for the top mounted coolers for a few months until my new bottom end is built.
Evosport has had them on a car for a few months now. One would think they would post their current finding by now..
