Agreed, that does limit your placement as long as you wanna keep it out of the engine bay...

Just something that crossed my mind, not trying to slander your build or Tony's epic product.

Didn't take it that way at all :tup: You have one nice 370 yourself.

She's a work in progress. :icon17:

Nowhere near your power potential though...


One day. It's down to FI or BP if he ever makes a 7AT kit for my boost.

Of course, not commenting about the flow of the pipes Tony, just curious about the placement of filters in terms of available airflow.

No. This point is invalid. Look at my ridgeline or any other oem panel filter airbox with a decent amount of power. The box is completely sealed off except for a 1" by 8" slot intake duct. The twin cone filter area has multiple times this amount of available free air space. This should be looked at as a zero cost of concern.

Missed a few pages, not sure if anyone asked this but is this with a hi-flow cat? Says "full" 2.5 so i wasn't sure if there was a downpipe or both?

We have not tried this setup with a HFC. We ran the car on stock cats, as well as a full 2.5" setup (downpipes, exhaust)

I think you're getting too caught up with shooting the idea down to really understand what I'm saying... :ugh2:

TopgunZ 02-15-2013 02:56 PM

Perhaps I don't understand your concern then. But a better example is something like the stillen cai. It's box and positioning pretty much choke it out also but I dyno ran it with the hood open to free up any air and with it closed where its in a pretty tight cage. No difference.

The vacuum effect is weird. That's why when you are shop vacuuming something even extremely light you still have to almost touch it to get it to suck up.

I'm not trying to say you had a silly question. I'm just saying that to put it to rest as a question regarding the kits engineering.

TerribleONE 02-16-2013 02:58 AM

Another dyno video for you guys :tup:

Sounds so sick,silky, smooth and rough all @ the same time.

Not sure about what's with the "in-depth" intake issue here. All The TT's that are designed this way seem to have the filters sticking out on the sides of the intercooler. If lets say, you tried to design some piping to get more air to the filters. I think the next worry would be hydrolock? Not to mention their would most likely be a much unneeded new curve in the pipe.
If airflow is that much of a concern? What has to be changed is not the intake designation... But the front fascia. The Stillen and Fujimura Body kits would quell airflow concerns. :tup:

Good shyt FI.

Nicely put! ^

We added the Carbon Fiber overlay as an extra treat. It cleans up the aesthetics. Back to the dyno next Tuesday and the drag strip over the weekend.

Stay tuned...

TerribleONE 02-16-2013 03:55 PM

Tony you CONTINUE to exceed my expectations! :tup: :happydance:

Thank you though. :tiphat:

TerribleONE 02-16-2013 09:23 PM

The entire crew continues to exceed my expectations I should say!

I'm assuming you're talking about the Stillen Gen II Intakes, because the Gen III's are in front of the bumper, open to unobstructed air from below?

It was just a Thought... nothing more, it was something I was thinking about and just curious to see what Tony had to say considering I don't have the kit to test for myself. :ugh2:

I'm just amazed at the way this thing sounds. You would think the car was built FI from stock!!! Rev's are smooth and seamless.

I think I've just found my next upgrade :drool:

Is there a price for this kit yet? I didn't wanna try and hunt thru 31 pages to find if it's been mentioned

We are working on the pricing as we speak. By the end of next week I hope to have the pricing concrete. We have spent so much time perfecting the combinations and putting the numbers down in real world data that the pricing has been delayed.

Thanks, Tony

It was mentioned earlier that you may be offering an optional aftermarket crash beam for this kit. Do you have any further details on that? Also, will you offer the option of black ceramic/powder coating on the intercooler and intercooler piping for a more subdued look?

Whenever you decide on pricing, I'm hoping you can also consider offering a bundle package with your exhaust system as well :tup:

Absolutely! There will be bundle packages as well as the first 5 buyers of the TT Kit will receive a lower intro price.

im interested in TT and exhaust pkg as well Tony...........

We still plan to see if it is feasible to create an aftermarket crash bar. The tubing will be offered in black as well as other colors.

Thanks, Tony
