Or are you keeping it a secret for now?

Yep. Sorry, but that's the way is has to be until it's finished. I trust all you guys - it's the rest of the Internet I don't trust!
They are definitely a well-respected intake company though.
2-weeks of design with several dyno runs during development.
I'll post more when I can.

No offence SoCal but I'll wait to a couple of different ones are on the market.

In response to other comments; I've been in this industry over 20-years, and have worked with many different manufacturers in prototyping new parts during that time. Rest assured that the company we chose to go with has a reputation of developing high performance products that perform above the levels of their competitors. The dyno charts will tell the tale...
More to come...
