This is a true full carbon system which is why the cost is so high. We have them in stock at a great price!

Before everyone freaks, keep in mind that K&N's "retail" price on a standard SS Intake is $499, and the street price vendors actually sell it for is $240-255.

$799???? They can keep it!

Not to mention that picture of it installed looks like it doesn't have the best fit possible.
Just another reason I am glad I went with roto-fab!

I'm curious why they don't offer a non carbon fiber CAI.. JUst seems to make since to offer one.. Product looks nice though, and the numbers look even better.

Roto-fabs is $15 per horsepower.

One of the difficult challenges of a CAI is to keep that hot air out of the CAI.

The design...needs much to be desired ...just say'N

Is this system drawing in some hot air on the edge near the driver's fenderwell as it leaves a small gap open?

Conventional thought says yes.

The carbon fiber is nice but I personally do not think it is worth the premium over the roto-fab. Also concerned about the small gap but K&N does produce some quality stuff.
