They also have a US represenative now. His name is Micheal. I believe his contact info is listed on their website. He worked at Eaton blowers for 20 something years. Real nice guy. If you want one, be ready to fork over some coin, and I'd reccomend you wait till I post up the results of wether it will fit my car or not. I'll be the first F-body tester, but the vette's have had 1 confirmed fit with some minor modifacations.

Not to mention reversion going back into the plenum and contaminating future pulses. I just hope I can make the damn thing fit. I've already had them leave some parts off that I knew would cause a problem. We shall see soon enough. ![Happy](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_stretch.gif)

The Harrop's IR design will tame a big cam and make idle/drivability MUCH nicer than a normal intake would. It will also help preserve low end power.
They've had GREAT results with them down in Australia.

Kumair, I didn't have much luck contacting them directly either. The US rep was very helpful and put me in touch with the right people. Once they e-mail you, they are very quick to get back with you.
777, we've been talking alot about them over the past couple of months. They have been around for a while, but no one wanted to spend $3k on it when they weren't even sure if it would fit. I figured what the hell. I have the extra money and the resources, so I'm gunna see what it takes to get it in there. I'm sure once I figure it out, a few will follow in getting it.

well my sheetmetal intake was treated me pretty well so far, but im always looking for more....not really interested in low end power....was thinking if this intake would help my setup breathe even more on the top end....say 6000-9200? over my current setup. do they even offer a c5r based intake?

This guy http://www.jenvey.co.uk/~JenDyn1.htm has been building these types of intakes MUCH longer than Harrop has. You can find the LSx type section on his site but he doesn't have the pics up yet. Go to "Home" page and click on [color=blue]"Product news updated November 06".[/blue]
The way I found out about him was from my builder in Lauderdale. This guy approached him to be a dealer here in the USA 3 weeks ago and my builder built him a display so he can showcase his intake at the PRI show in Orlando this coming weekend. Harrop will have to drop their prices or sell none of them.
I'll be using one on my new engine
