Hello all,
Ive been reading with interest posts on this forum about airintake pipes and the benefits they give. I run an x358 xjr and am developing, with a company over here in the uk, a complete cold air feed system going right to the throttle body from the air filter housing and made in carbon fibre to avoid heat soak issues (i believe the cast aluminium section after the normal plastic intake tube to be the main issue where heat soak is concerned.
So now to my question would there be any interest in such a product (obviously dynos would be provided to prove any gains) ?
Initial pricing is looking to be between £350 and £450.
Thanks.

Quick update, car is back from bodyshop and we are starting fabrication week on Saturday we will be trialling both 3 inch and 3.5 inch intakes to acertain which one offers the most benefit. Once the mock ups are created and tested ive set up the 1st one to be made in carbon fibre and from there costs will be set obviously depending on number required. Watch this space.
