Default looks good ... a little more finishing and people will be all over it

can I suggest a simple black crinkle finish to keep you from going insane trying to clean up the welding and the polishing?

Looks nice, what sort of testing are you going to do with it?

Default Bottom line for me is what can it do at the track

Of course we are going to do back to back testing at the track between this and the OEM/paper filter. Also we are going to insert a pressure probe and get up to speed and shut off the engine to see what kind of pressure we get. As for heat there is a carbon wrap that we are going to surround it with as well as a thermal blanket on the side of the engine.

Nice shiny aluminum box with top held by self-tapping screws. Now what does it do?
