how much does an intake like that cost? also, will it flow better than my intake? i have the single tube that splits in 2 and then comes back together before it enters the throttle body.
i wish i had enough money to buy one of the mandrel bent ones cos they look so cool.

The AU one seems to have a very tight radius at the throttle body doesn't it - doesn't seem like it wouldnt be too great for flow.
Maybe go for a BA one like 2fishingdogs has mentioned...
