A couple more intake options for the 00+ guys
In the second pic the tubing further down really does look smooth. If the Intense FWI seems to work the best then I guess there is no other option until something else comes along that is proven, just wish it was a little better looking for $180.

i know dillcc drilled a hole in his filter and put the IAT in there, saved himself ~$50?

have had no issues. (I think my time slips also support the performance results as well)

Cost:
4" tubing from ZZP $40.38 shipped *I ordered four feet, you only three*
2- PVC couplers $6.00
2- SS 4" clamps $7.00
1- 9" filter $30.00
Total= $83.38
That'* the one-piece pictured. There'* an option for a 2-piece based on a fell-founded suggestion I made to him when he was developing it. I'd strongly encourage you to go with the 2-piece. There'* ample engine flex under heavy load/launches.
From just over a year ago:
Now we're talking. The L36 outnumbers the L67 by 10:1 for each year. I like the idea of adding it as an option rather than jacking the price for all, but I still think the 'hump' (I like the term) should be a recommended option for L36 and L67 without the solid motor mount.

From my standpoint as an outsider looking in, I see a pretty exlusive market for 3 model years. 2000-2003. Very few have the solid motor mount, and those are the only ones that could consider it. But with some flex in the middle, and a bushing in that hole, it would work for all 3 years regardless of mounts.
The INTENSE FWI is 3.5", but that'* due (perhaps) to the fact that the tubing isn't perfectly smooth inside. Close, but not as smooth as what you have. There'* some potential here, but still a pretty exclusive market.

If it would open up a larger market then it could be added as an option to those who dont have upgraded mounts or have the weak UIM. Again, not a problem at all for me, Im willing to make changes or add options to accomodate and broaden the market. Thanks for your help,
