Default Intake Elbow V2.0 Thread

Im gauging interest for another run of 10+. Looks like everyone is loving them dispite the minor PCV issue, which when I can get the NORMA fittings, everyone will be getting the norma fitting at no cost.

So here are the prices as follows:

Basic Intake Elbow-$275

Featuring a mid grade/tough cermaic black exterior coating.
Aviation grade interior high ceramic content coating on the inside.

Best Intake Elbow-$325
Featuring the toughest highest content ceramic baked coating available. (Aviation grade coating)
Coated exterior and interior for maximum dissapation of heatsoak and deflection.

The Groupbuy will be open for a minimum of 10 elbows mixed.
I will require a 50% deposit for your name in the slot. If you are interested let me know which one you would like and I will add you to the list.

I will accept Money orders, checks(once cleared your name will be added),Paypal
My Paypal is pissed_off_waffle@yahoo.com

In the event that all 10 slots do not get filled dont worry the ones who participated will either be refunded or I will pick up the slack.

Last night I test drove my 03 STR with "MAFIOSO" intake elbow, 3 lb. pulley, K&N drop-in a/f, low temp. thermostat, NGK Iridium plugs, and full exhaust mod (hi-flo cats-down) = "ANIMAL"! Folks. The tach sweeps faster up the range due to quicker throttle response. When considering the "mods" now working in conjunction with each other the considerably "less restriction" of incoming air very likely helped her make an additional 15 hp. Picking her up tonight and very looking forward to tomorrows 84 mile roundtrip commute. Thank you Mafioso!

LOL! jag79. It does haul *** bro. The 3 lb. pulley really draws up big torque. The difference of air intake tubes is a no-brainer; the Mafioso elbow really let's her breath...Love it. The front bumper is being repainted this weekend, then comes the vid as promised. The mechanic said the old plugs were perfect i.e. light brown, no oil-carbon deposits.

Give me a couple of weeks and I'll send a deposit for a Basic in silver (that possible?). Gotta get my R out of body shop jail next week then address some things with the 69. I need an additional job to support my car habits...

I'm going to go into details on a new thread which hopefully will feature a vid of my 03 STR...but I must let out some of the enthusiasm for the difference the mods have made. I just arrived home from picking up my 03 STR (new 3 lb pulley, new NGK iridium plugs, Mafioso air intake elbow, low temp. thermostat, K&N drop in a/f, full exhaust mod, and ECU hard re-set)...what an ANIMAL! Gobs of torque and horsepower from the bottom-up...So much that I now estimate 0-70 mph rather than 0-60. 0-100 mph is achieved noticeably quicker too.

I posted in the other thread as well. I will take a basic when ever your ready. I havent found my STR yet but might as well start stacking up parts while I am looking.

We have a dyno in the shop so I will get a base line and then test the parts as they go on for the forum. Thinking full exhaust with hi flows, 3lb pulley, Maf intake elbow and K&N, low temp stat, snow alky injection, may try that euro toys ecu once I get some data, intercooler C02 kit, SC port, NOS. Wont be able to do it all back to back but can get before and after dynos to compare increases at least.

Hi Mafioso I am local and anxious to get my hands on one of your best intakes. I'll send you the funds via paypall next Thursday (payday lol). I'd love to hear it if you ever have free time man, just let me know.
