Question Sound Performance Custom Intake

SP does a custom turbo header for the SC300 (2JZ-GE), its based on the HKS header for the Supra TT. They bend it and manipulate it a little bit. Ethan and I believe Dave H has it. Nothing I know of for the SC400, though. Call Larry up... He's friendly to talk to.

I actually visited them two days ago trying to figure out how much is what. I talked to Gary and he told me that few days back SP did a custom intake for SC400, and if I'm interested they can build one for me.
I was wondering if the person who may have one could tell me more about it or even post some pictures.

Thanks,

Chris K.

The Ikon,

Would you be interested in making one more?

I've been waiting patiently, like a lot of us SC owner, but I'm done. Unfortunately, I don't feel that I would be good in creating my own "product". That only can mean that I have to count on others.

Thanks,

Chris K.
