He's probably not talking about the surge tanks, he's talking about the carbon airboxes (which aren't Kleemann, they're Carbonio/VRP)

The car is currently owned, or previously owned by a board member named mchapparone

Are you referring to the intake manifolds?

Probably not. Here is the same car with the vrp carbon intake and tubes but WITHOUT Kleemann Surge tanks!

So there is definitely something going on with those surge tanks.

I've seen pictures of them on this site before. They are rare though.
