way to much, even tho they help feed air, its not going to net you any more power and it looks gay as hell anyways

When I first saw they I thought they would be great but they really dont look good on a light colored car. When I found out they cost 1200 bucks I just about fell over so I asked John to make them...who knows, maybe something down the road.

More then anything else, I wonder if they would do much for the HP. When Kawasaki switched their ZX7's to the RAM AIR system it was a really large HP gain. Pumping all that air into the airbox made for a much more powerful bike. My Right hand guy bought a new ZX6 last week and sure as heck they still use RAM AIR.

I'm really curious what it would do at speed...

Hell, you could change your Gen III airfilters through the nostrils practically.

Well, the problem is the nostril molds include a bit of a "tunnel", which may or may not impact the Gen III intake tubes. From what I can tell, the nostrils are located too far to the outside to provide any direct airflow to the filters, which are more centrally located.

Costs too much, and IMO, loads the front end with too much "stuff"
