no cel's, had a version of this on the car for ~ 3 months now, the air sensor on the srt6's are after the tb/sc/ic and do not come into play with this intake.
Correct. SRT's use a MAP sensor whereas the base/limited use a MAF sensor.

I really don't need to see if mileage will increase, I'm sure that when you are just cruising on the highway there would be an increase.

I would like a plain silver powder coat, something that looks like raw aluminum. It doesn't need to match the existing silver trim.

Although I was hoping for the $375 - $450 range Neverenough has a slight point. What I mean by slight point is that Renntech is a internationally publicized tuner & their airbox is manufactured out of carbon fiber so they
can charge a pretty penny. I'm by no means downplaying this system as I really want one myself. I was just trying to compare apples to apples and cold air intakes from K&N and AEM for example are in the $250 - $375 range. I realize that you are talking about mass quantity here but to me it looks like this system
could be adapted to the base/limited crowd which
could open up the market quite a bit.
I am really excited to see products like this come to fruition. Great job Rob!!!
