Soon there may be a stainless steel intake tube available. I wanted to know what kind of interest there may be for this item. I know alot of g35 guys buy the Z-tube, but this would be a step up from that.

Also it may come in different finishes and would be compatible with the pop-charger..

Post here for discussion.

I don't think you'd want a ss tube as steel conducts heat too easily (which would affect your intake temps) and is heavy.

it was actually very light

It can be offered in chromed abs plastic if that would appeal to more people.

Another option is Carbon Fiber, but of course $$ goes up from there.

It'd be a nice addition to the Pop...I like shiny.

The new NISMO car uses the metal intake tube with the stock intake box. This would be the EXACT same setup, and an upgraded stainless filter would be optional.

i disagree, everyone knows where the intake tube is, and i think everyone can picture it being polished.

HMMMMMMMM the CF raised my interest, wonder if it would work w/ the K&N typhoon that me and DiRN have?

jinxx, I'm not too up on the mechanics between the intake tube and the filter, so I don't know. Anyone else know?</span>

This is basically a stock tube replacement. I am not familiar with the K&N tube.

cool idea for the people who have popcharger , it would look 100 X better than the stock plastic tube...
pricing ? ( just curious )

That would be great if it was plastic just like the stock tube.
I can picture it being polished but I would still love to see a pic.
