I miss my 3g lude. I remembe trying so many different ideas. NICE WORK though. I bought an intake from Tom at Lude speed. Wish I picked up one of there turbo kits when I had the chance. You should think about marketing that intake, I know there are still 3g owners out there.

Acually we used steel and cut/welded the intake and then grinded it down to make it once piece and painted it. We are selling them that's why I made them to help the aftermarket since i'm turbo'd . We well them for $160 which isn't that bad considering they cost about $70 to make

Wow, thats an awesome job. In that picture it looks just like one solid piece. You could make all kinds of money off of that.
