Intake from fastlaneturbo

[TaurusBuilder]

Has any one seen or tried this?

It's from fastlaneturbo.com

It's been discussed here.  It's pretty expensive and personally, I don't think it's worth any performance gains it may or may not deliver.  It does look pretty cool though.

wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too expensive for what it is.

It is high. I was just wondering if anyone had tried it. It's an alternative to the airraid or Hennessy. Looks like it just needs powercoating and it would look good.

I don't think anybody here has one.  Someone on the Flex forum did one.  Here's a couple links.

My biggest problem with it besides the price is that it is wide open to the engine compartment.  If you aren't moving, it'll get really hot, really fast.  HAI

Need to coat the engine with ceramics, contain the heat where it belongs!

Isn't it like 800 bucks!

Holy Crap!  $800 bucks?  Side note, I like the carbon fibre look in that engine bay....

 

[bigmoneycloser]

+1 on the carbon...
Is that a wrap or is there a company that sells that??
I would want a set..

 

[DJE624]

Try these guys.

How would the hydro dip hold up under all that heat??

The intake is definitely a pricey piece. But who makes an alternative the offers this look at any price? The Hennessy is 2200. But looks a hell of a lot better

If thats what you want you could have it polished or power coated or even ceramic coated and still save money. I wouldn't do business with hennessy period, that have a bad track record.

I haven't received any info as of yet from them. I haven't seen anything bad about them. But, then again I haven't looked.

Hennessey's notorious for incredibly poor business practices, and even worse product relations / support / etc.

Not too mention wwwwwaaaaaayyyyyyy overpriced.

You won't have to look far Greg, that's for sure.

They have a bad record from way back on the 1990's model SHO UP TO NOW!!!, on other cars. Every time I see a post here or many other forums, it was posted by them. Local in ATLANTA FPS tune my 1st car and fix many bad jobs by Hennssey. In Jan 2011 looking for a tuner(for my new SHO) FPS I WOULD BE HIS 1st 2010 SHO,LIVERNOIS, and UNLEASH were the only Co. that anybody (independent) said they had there tune. Now near 4yr later Hennessy rep is not any better. BUT YOU ARE RIGHT there air intake can't hurt your car and it looks good.

MY 1ST SHO

Though I have not had any dealings with them, I have read countless posts which are not favorable - mostly  from CTS-V  and Vette owners as I recall.
