Re: "Needswings" Intake review...
ok, SEMA info...
the srt6 intake will be in the Woolf Aircraft (mandrel bender) display booth 20831, the color of the powdercoat has been changed from the one in the display and i believe the air filter was swapped out for one of their sponsors filters (not much i can do about that). - Already in Vegas with their display stuff.
our srt4 cutout exhaust downpipe will be in the Zeitronix Wideband display booth 20265.
- shipping out tomorrow, putting the final touches on the bling tonight.
i should have TONS of pics when we return.
we will be there thursday and friday, see ya there!

Re: "Needswings" Intake review...
Does the install require the removal of the grill? Also, can the stock intake plumbing be removed without any cutting and etc.? What I've read so far is that this is a completely bolt up system with no cutting or molesting of the car. Is this true? Any estimates on price yet? I hope he doesn't over charge us like so many AM vendors do for this car. The components look to be relatively inexpensive. Just some aluminum pipe, hose clamps, rubber hose, a K&N, and the use of a mandrel pipe bender.

Well, for me unfortunately price is not relative. I do believe he did a great job designing the product and it even looks good in prototype form; however, there is a difference between making a fair profit and price gouging. I am interested in his products, but I'll have to wait to see if I can afford it. Keeping my fingers crossed!
Re: "Needswings" Intake review...
Great pics neverenough!
Now who is going to be the first one to take a stock airbox and 'modify' it to fit over top of the needswings intake, so that the engine cover doesn't look like half of it is missing?
How 'solid' is the mounting? It looks like a few bumps may cause it to slip out of the flexible areas unless the ends are flared to rolled.

1. Makes power the Butt Dyno can feel.
2. Makes sounds like the car should make to begin with.
3. Easy to Install, Excellent Fit and Finish.
4. Makes 1-2 Shift even more aggressive at Wide Open Throttle.
5. About 1-1.5 MPG per Gallon Better fuel economy, even running kinda hard.
Only Negatives so far are severely shorten Rear Tire Life Expectancy.
