    I think it looks kind of funny... Like a carbon fiber mannequin leg.

    Probably some sort of replacement for the Helmholtz resonator.

    Hmm, wonder how well it'd work. Interesting idea, for sure. Never seen it before either.

    Dyno of Scud with Boa intake, vs just the chamber vs stock

    The pipe can be excellent in strength and thermal insulation made ​​of carbon fiber, to minimize the increase in intake air temperature.
    Doubling effect in combination with the image of SCUD, perfect intake system is completed

    The torque compared to the intake pipe up across genuine, the lack of large torque sauce, at high rpm from low to medium speed ranges stand out. I found that a further performance improvement by the combined use of SCUD

    Is that like blinker fluid? I wonder where it's available, my car definitely could use some torque sauce.
    I've got a lot less horsepower - luckily they are Japanese horses - usually in better shape and more motivated.

    52000-54000 yen...for the CF pipe only

    The "intake air filtration system version2 NA8 · NB roadster SCUD" (CF air cleaner)- 57000 yen

    makes my wallet cringe.
