I can't answer your question directly but I can tell you that "what's inside" parts wise usually has little to do with the cost of an item. It's usually tied to the amount of research and development (R&D) that goes into designing and testing a product to development stages, the name that's going on that product and as always, what the market will bear (pay) for a part like that.

A Comptech Ice Box intake system doesn't cost all the money it sells for, to make but it did have some R&D put into it and people were willing to pay for the Comptech name and product line...hence the steep price.

you're just full of useful insight aren't you? a and a constitute 1/2 of your posts.

back on topic. no doubt its a good product, but as stated above, you are paying for the name as much as the actual airbox.
