Do you have any specs on your intakes? Materials, construction techniques, dyno pulls on other cars, etc.?

I didn't think the intake looked too professional so I would have guessed it was the one on Ebay.
It appears that someone threw together some flexible stove pipe and compromised by using only the one inlet side. I think Saskins set-up was a better looking unit.
That's my .02cents (.0175 U.S.).

yeah, that intake looks very ghetto. they are dreaming for $600. i agree, looks like flexible duct work from home depot rigged together in a few hours.

i will continue waiting for a real intake solution for our cars.

I do agree that $600 is way too much for any Air Filter Setup...............................
BUT............................................... ............
The Engineering that went into the design of these $18.00 - $50.00 Air Filter Systems must have been done during Smoke Breaks in some third world countries shirt sweat shop!!!!
Here is an example of what I saw.....................
A version for a MOPAR V6 although NOT for a Crossfire.

Perfect example of todays SNAKE OIL SALESMAN. I am always surprised at how many people can be fooled by outrageous claims. You should all save your money for a computer chip or something else worthwile, because unless you're going to spring for a turbo or supercharger, all you're going to get is smoke and mirrors. K&N have made the least outrageous claims, and at least other than lightening your wallet by about 60 bucks, they do no significant damage.( They also don't add HP). Some of this stuff is just plain silly.

Let's not be too hard here. Some engines make gains and some dont from intake work alone. These guys are asking for some assistance, which in the end should help us out.

Here's a pic of a $20 solution that made an enourmous dyno proven increase in power on a twin cam 16 valve engine 1.3l. Sure it's nothing to be proud of visually, but the people who fitted it never looked back.
