Hmmm... leaks can be managed, but collapses? Wha? Or are you thinking 10 years down the line it might collapse?

I'd think any decent aftermarket shop could work up a kit for you. My local Upsolute dealer after doing my ECU recommended for the next steps to take a)air filters b) high-flow cat and exhaust and c) new intake. He even offered me a discount (50% off) if I'd be the first Crossfire for him to mod like that (baiting me to be the guinea pig ). Other than K&N's, I'll probably what for the 3/36 to expire before I start doing anything that extensive, though if the intake leaks I wouldn't be opposed to using a bit of silver tape or such to close leaking areas.
