Have you thought of putting any type of helix design on the inside of the spacer to hep with air flow velocity. Like a lot of the performance throttle body spacers have.

Not a bad idea, although it would probably take a lot more R&D to get it right, and could also affect the final price.

there would need to be alot more code to be written for it, but ultimately i don't think they do much anyways, if the stock intake is straight, it wouldnt make much different if one was just in the middle IMO.

So it looks like the fogger option will be standard

just remember that if you want the fogger option, and you dont want the one that will be provided, then you must pick one out before you order it from us, when that time comes.

or to cut production costs, just make all fogger setups and whoever doesnt want one put a cap on the nipple.

lol ok, but it will be a threaded hole for the fogger, so if we know who wants what, we can leave the hole un-bored

I had thought the guy that was milling the proto for me flaked out, but he randomly called today saying he has it done in 3 thicknesses for me to test with. I have to pick them up tomorrow, and we can go from there

I am happy about these replies, it reassures me that spending thousands on a CNC Machine will be well worth it in the long run. If anyone has any ideas for any other parts than can be CNC'ed and anyone wants/needs toss me or alex a message.
