Anybody ever hear or seen one? It looks to be a really nice intake??

 

It looks blingy.

 

looks like the same design as the GruppeM. which is on the way for me

Nothing wrong with a little bling in your life. I was really hoping for maybe a dyno plot or any insight on what and if any power gains.

 

Looks just like the GruppeM. hopefully its cheaper and more abundantly availible. Anyone know of anyplace that sells it?

 

looks like group M ones to me

but imagine that thing with out that CF cover... and what can that CF cover do?

with out the Cf cover it looks like POS to me ... looks like reative short ram

 

To me, it doesn't appear to offer much of an advantage over a typical short intake. In fact, the filter looks to be somewhat smaller than those that are commonly included with other intakes. The shroud is a nice idea, but without some provision for directing cooler air into it and blocking hotter engine bay air from entering, it probably won't do all that much to lower intake temperatures.

as for intake air temperatures.... there's not much differance in between cold air intake Vs short ram when the car is in motion

This is true (depending upon how one defines "not much"), which would further decrease the advantage of this intake over the simpler exposed filter designs.

Actually this one is on ebay with 2 days left and is only at $70.90usd. The intake is in Australia.

It looks NOTHING like the Gruppe M intake.

On a second look you're right.

 

at a glance it kinda does but the Gruppe M one looks hell alot better than simota or whatever intake

 

Someone is selling one of these with a custom K&N filter in the classifieds for something like $375 i think.

Pretty rare JDM Intake.

 

any more pics of the Group M installed??

 

maybe if you take out your headlight and relocate the coolant reservior... otherwise I dont see much that would make me want to buy it over my crappy custom AEM.

yeah. i know the design looks pretty stupid

 

Performance benefit is likely small....just based on how diminuitive that filter is.

I guess a hybrid between a Gruppe M/Prototype Velocity stack (magic stick) would work "best" ....something that is of this style anyway....

 

found some more pic

I've seen simota products personally in Taiwan and the quality is no better than your typical chinese made intake.
