Thanks for the update Tom.

I have been avoiding saying anything until I knew 100% what was going on... Once again I am VERY sorry for the wait

If it were possible do you think there would be any benefit to having them be equal length?

I could not tell you that with a definitive answer... I would imagine you would see some changes if you messed with primary length but I doubt it would be anything substantial.

Given that the IRIS does separate the intake into two halves, I honestly don't think you'd want to have the lengths all that different. You might just make the ECU angry with you

I understand that as well. That is why the primaries are relatively close in length... But due to the firewall being so close the driver's TB needs an extra bend to go under the pass side... That is all

Prostreetonline.com has been giving me the run-around on where my parts are and when I would recieve them. I called earlier in the week to touch base and find out where my tracking #'s were b/c I was told April 17th, that they would recieve them that day and ship them out by Friday the latest... Since I have recieved nothing yet, I called again today to find out what was going on. Aparently they did not get them in yet from HKS so I am stuck here waiting... I told them to cancel the rest of the order and ship the 1 they had in stock right away. I am ordering them from somewhere else right now. I am very sorry for the long wait and I am VERY pissed at this place for not canceling the order on the 17th like I wanted to. SO please be patient a little longer while I get this straightened out.

Tom

Man,

I'm sorry to see you going through this. Pleasing hungry customers is a biatch.

Hope they are happy with the end result.

Still looking for some data from peeps as far as a before and after result. Drag strip, dyno, track day or autocross. Same day changeover results. Only looking to see a tiny improvement since it is a big car.

I guess since we haven't had any of the people that recieved them go to the Dyno yet would it be strange to ask if anyone's "Butt Dyno" has noticed any difference??

Fart: You mean if the sound and power delivery goes from silent to loud (Like Vtec) or was the power delivery smooth and constant (like the silent but deadly ones)?

Latest butt dyno feedback. Could be my improving driving skills (faster corner exit speeds) or it could be the Tomyx snorkus, but ran out of revs and had to upshift to 4th on several of the straights at Watkins Glen where I previously stayed in 3rd (track day yesterday, full report to be posted when pics available).

Decent report so far. Looking forward to reading more.

LetItSnow · #**269** 05-09-2008, 09:53 AM

I'm fully aware that parts are behind schedule when I ask this: Is another production run likely?

Mike621 · #**270** 05-09-2008, 10:28 AM

I believe we are coming to a consensus that this may become a made to order item, with the likelihood of another group buy minimal. I need to speak with Tom more on the matter.
