No need for any deaths, Mr Holdener. Take my car! So Cal, Vegas? I will be up in Vegas Nov 5/6, if you want to meet up and discuss details.

My specs: STOCK. Completely stock. Just under 3k miles on a 2008 liftback.

Well I have just talked with Mr Holdener. He has answered my questions as far as production specs and I am now going to commit. I also congratulated him on ten and said I would like to be 11, thank you very much. List should now have 11 names.

Looks like the first production run will have to more than 10-good job! I would like to get ahold of an early Xb to see if the intake can be fited to that application with an adapter for the tb.

Reading back through this....will you also test with various other add ons in addition to the prototype long tube header? For example say mods that most have made like pulleys, axle backs and headers currently offered so folks will have a vague idea what to expect as to function and power output?

In the book that I am finishing on B-segments cars, I have already tested the TRD axle back, aem CAI, TRD CAI, dropping the exhaust entirely, custom CAI, NOS nitrous and low-boost turbo as well as all the testing on the intake. I would like to run a direct back to back on the pulleys and the shorty header if someone would allow me to borrow them for testing.

Not sure if I'm reading this right. Is this an opinion that the power gains offered by the intake are not worth the retail price? This seems odd since the gains from the intake are greater than a CAI, axle back, pulleys and shorty header combined. I am curious to see what you think is a good performance buy.

I need a couple days to make the decision. This is why I'm asking you now so I don't waste your time then. When is the last day I can get in on this?
