Looks good, but you're going to need a big shoehorn to get that leather chair into the engine bay.

Wow, that has to be one of the best paint jobs on an intake that I've ever seen. If I can't find a local shop to paint mine, than I definately know where I'm sending it.

That looks really good, I think that 200 bucks is a hell of a deal considering how nice it looks.

$200 is a bit much imho. Very nice job though.

Also having FAST intake & TB, Speed Inc. fuel rails, QTP headers and catted Y pipe, coil pack relocation kit, and valve covers installed. Then a Speed Inc Dyno tune.

Painting the intake is a quite a bit of work, especially since it has been sanded smooth! Nice.

Mine is done Sebring Silver
