Haha, I love it.....we won't buy a good part because of the name used in the auction.....

I wish but havn't even sold one. . . . at least I got a bid from the one I put on eBay. Maybe if I had both sides, it would be more attractive. Comments?

yeah not everyone wants to add one into their bumper unless it's "bling"
like the spoon/vision cf ones..

which happen to look alot shittier than yours.

anyways if I wasnt broke as **** right now i'd buy one off u for sure.
I think urs is percfect.

my advice, make outlet(dia.) as big as possible..

Thanks for the support guys. . . . BTW, I did use the largest outlet(dia) as possibe, its 2.5" inside diameter. I tried using a 3" since a lot of people's intakes are that much unfortunately, it won't fit.

aah ok,
yeah 2.5 should be perfect,
I thought it looked like a 2 or so from the pic..

I've always wanted one of these btw..
great for the perfect intake(cai with the benefits of a shortram).
but imo one on each side would be the best performance increase,
run a flexy tube directly to ur brake,
I saw some guy with a setup where the tube snugged up right next to the rotor,
and when u turned the wheels the tube turned with ur brakes,
very nice.

if you've ever done any track driving you'll know that would be a godsend

I know exactly what you mean. I overshot corner 8 @ TWS because I overheated the brakes and while approaching the corner I didn't have any brakes left. I had an interesting excursion. Thank God I didn't break anything except for a dent on the shock tower from the upper control arm hitting it.

i would say stay away from ebay, just stick to selling them on the internet and forums. become a sponsor and go in teh sponsor forums and sell them. how much are you selling them for? i like how they are unnoticeable and functional. i cant believe no one is buying these. if you made something like this for a 97 hatch, i would be all over it

thats a nice piece of work, you should sell that in the performance class fields, a nice addition to air cooling those red hot brakes

Okay I was overly harsh. But the guy was frontin JDM Spoon so I had to call him out. You could get stabbed with a plastic fork for that. Any of you guys would have did the same if you weren't planning on buying from him.

Anyway, nice work. Sorry. I was trying to make the sarcasm blantantly obvious, but now that I read it in a different state of mind I realize how it sounds over internet context.

Definitely. . . . . Just as a question. . . . are you willing to get rid of your water sprayer reservior? The driverside duct will require that part to be removed. Track cars don't need it but daily drivers in the most part do. I'm just looking for feedback. Thanks!
