Default APS High boost Inlet duct release date?

Ok Peter I asked in the other thread and got no reply. I can understand you dont want your new 427 tt kit thread hijacked. So lets get down to business. I got this pm from you on 1/17/2008 .

Better materials used with a spring inside the duct.

Strong vacuum from the large amount of air flowing through the turbochargers has been known to collapse the intake ducting. Heard they were going to be replaced with metal / stronger material.

I am also likely going to need a set of these new ducts but planned on running lower boost for awhile but that might not be too easy to do considering how addictive boost is.
