The tubes showed up finally after a delay in the shipping. We have been able to verify fitment is great on them also. The webpage is being worked on today and we are getting all of the pricing and options up on there also.
We will have the following options for the hard tube -
- silicone color (black, blue or red)
- 1/8" NPT fitting welded to the tube for nitrous
- include block off plate (for those using an aftermarket blow off valve)
- include Synapse Blow off valve welded to hard tube
- Powdercoat color options
Let me know if there is anything else you think there should be for options.
Thanks,
Dave

First off, Awesome!:banana:
Second, would the 1/8" NPT cover mounting a boost gauge, or possibly an air temp gauge?
This kind of mounting would be great for testing out how the intercooler diverter, Silicone charge pipes, bigger intercooler, aftermarket CO2 cooling systems, etc... might improve air temps into the manifold.
I am probablly wrong, but i thought i had read that there isn't a "stock" way to read that temp... Again I am probablly wrong
I hope u have one of the left next friday!!

You're right, intake temps read by the ecu are post-intercooler.
Usually you can just compare to ambient air temps to determine effectiveness of a new IC

Maybe an option to get this with the charge pipe kit, in the place of the silicone one that this replaces. I want to get the first three silicone charge pipes with the hard pipe to finish it up

We added as many options as we thought would work with this tube. We included the following options:
Tube finish
Silicone color
Option to have 1/8" fitting welded to the tube
Synapse blow off valve option
Block off plate option
Full Charge tube kit - if you select this we will send the other 3 silicone tubes and hose clamps to complete all of the charge tubes in the system, we will ship in the silicone color option you select for the hard tube.

It's going to sit in the open area next to the battery.
Since we have the block off plates now for the turbo bypass, we will be introducing a drivers side hard charge tube.
The hard tube will be made from CNC mandrel bent aluminum and come standard in a polished finish. We will be offering standard and custom powdercoat options for the tube also. We will also be offering external blow off valves and will weld them on the charge tube for you before powdercoat.
Here are some pictures of the prototype running on our car, another prototype is being sent out for the production run to start and we expect these back early to mid March. Once they go into production we will also have pricing for the tube and also have combo kits that include the rest of the silicone tubes in the system.

I will get some pictures of the tube installed later today and get them posted up for you.
