Checking interest...Air intake boxes

I have spoken with Nadeem and Im going to run a checking interest thread. I have a local guy who will makes these for us. They will be made of aluminum, CNC bent, welded, powder coated and ready to install*. They will have the optional autozone hose kit for the sports owners for an aditional charge.

UPDATE 9/23/09

I have a prototype and have done some test fitting. It needs some more work. I contacted the shop making these and I would like to discuss some options with everyone who is interested in this.

Option 1

Get the part to fit correctly, make it and be done

Option 2

Make the part fit correctly, add in the intake tube, along with maf housing, and sell it as a complete drop in package. This would require the use of a silicone connector to go from the box to the turbo inlet(not provided). This option will add to the cost, and will require a pro tune to be safe. Im sure the gains and fit and finish will be top notch this way, but it adds to the costs.

Here are some test fitting photos. This project is nowhere near done so I am removing the date for the GB and all other dates until I get it squared away.

They will look something like this, but fit correctly, and be pretty.
