Clipse3GT,
So did you change your mind on turbo (efr I thought)? Or were you going to get the version without the built in bov recirc?
Or are you like me and think that the wait on the efr is just plain stupid?
Back on topic - is there something wrong with MAP's current offering? Or is it to support new options? (excuse my ignorance on this but is that a velocity stack?)

It will be another 6 months before it's released and it will take another 1 year to go through all of the testing and trials.
I have all the bolt on's already. So there is no point to spend 5k on a new kit and another 5k on a motor. I can just build a motor at this point and have 2.2 with FP Red. Should be plenty.
6months... does any current production car use the efr twinscroll range? as a oem part? * might be worth stealing one... jk * good thing I still have time to choose

Don't mean to seem greedy, but for my needs I'm only interested in a 3.5" intake. I think it is plenty for maxing out an FP Red.
Let me know if you want to be on the list or not. Chris didn't specify how many people need to be on the list to get this done.
I was looking for a 3.5" intake similar to the Primo Performance Intake. I just want the recirc pipe location like the Primo or AMS. I have the AMS LICP w/Tial QR valve.
I will put you on the list!

Definitely interested in updates. I suppose that from my perspective a 3.5" intake is plenty, as well as top air flow characteristics, but also keeping it cool. I have the AEM right now and have been very happy with it, but I intend on moving up to a medium size turbo - with 3" inlet, as so many are turning into. I am just about done waiting for the EFR, although it burns me that they are supposed to be really good
Anyway, I am probably anal about it, but I want to have as cool an intake temp as possible without taking up the entire engine bay. Maybe during this update the intake heat shield will also be updated?
My ideal intake would be a "unit" that takes care of the 3.5" intake, MAF and reorients the BOV (I have the synchronic dv) to move it closer to the front, and provides piping to the licp. I know that ETS has/had something like this, but I could never get a straight answer on exact fitment with the standard or custom licp.
In my world I could imagine a world where we have polished stainless steel pipes from the stock (or custom if need be) licp to the reoriented bov, and then again to the intake - which is kept cool by an efficient "nice" looking heat shield. Also all clamps would be t clamps, and black couplers (boring I know.)
I know that MAP has to make their parts to be affordable and for as wide an audience as possible since so many of us have so many combinations of turbos, bovs, and licps, but I though that I would list my ideal layout.

I know gains can be made with a velocity stack, but my original idea was to have an alternative intake because of an issue with routing to the recirc pipe from the Tial QR valve.
If it will take longer to research and develop, I would rather have one with out the velocity stack.

When MAP comes out with it I will be willing to drive up and get it dyno tested. Nice little road trip for me!
