Razor's Edge Intake Tube (pics)

Finally got mine made. Looks good so far. Not sure about one of the grommets, so I may epoxy it to keep extra air from entering..
On with the pics (install will be later this week)

That mass air is going to wreak havoc with your tune. Looks good though!

Matias,
I called REM and specifically asked them if it would affect my tune. The new batches have the same 90mm diameter, or at least they said it did, so no worries. If I have to retune for this thing I'm gonna be bent. That would make it about a 500.00 intake

That Plantronics unit is a GODSEND. I'm in the server room like 50% of my day and could never hear crap on my old set. This one ROCKS. I get about 150 foot range as well, so I can use it throughout our department, and still hear it ring when I'm down the hallway. I highly recommend it

Are there slots in the carbon under the rubber boot? Carbon fiber like this does not flex or compress. If there is no allowance for compression it will crack. Dinan the infamous BMW tuner had that problem when they first came out with their carbon CAI's. Later models had slots.
