interesting. i didn't see that before, looks like alternative to dinan intake with similar results, without having to spend $800.

i have a problem though. my air box is melting (i just found out - don't know the reason yet). thinking that i'll need a new one. that's why i was hoping to find some solution here

Melting? that is odd! any possibility to take a picture then we analyze it?

and with the Dinan intake, RPI scoops on both sides would be functional
