cause of car shows between now and feburary 
who cares about a functional intake, your only going to gaing 5hp MAX, theres not that big of a difference
DDavis gained 11hp outta his dyno-tuned true CAI.
and what site did he buy it from? how much was it? i bet it was 2.5 not 3, uh?

Nope, it's a 2.0 Zeteceraroony. It was gonna be produced, then it wasn't, then it was, then it was on hold, then Darrel was a terrorist, then he wasn't, then the intakes were gonna be produced, then they weren't. I quit following after the first day.

I believe it was 3" pipe though don't quote me on that. He and I reckon Keith (street flight)did all the work. They had thought about selling them but it just wasn't feasible.
98.5 SVT
91 Escort GT (almost sold)
96 ATX Zetec (i brake to watch you swerve)
FS: SVT rear sway bar
WTB: Very cheap beater

There's only 2 to be exact that are from the streetflight design. DDavis' and mine. Davis gained a lot of power from this design. It is 3" the entire length. It is not restrictive only having minimal bends, one at the tb and of course behind the bumper, which allows the power increase. Plus it is a true cai; pulling in air temps slightly cooler than actual outside air temps. This is it. not all that impressive to look at but it's 100%functional, that's the whole purpose.
And damn it sounds sweet under power...

Nope, they're not for sale, but they are extremely simple to make. You just need some good quality 3" stainless or aluminum and some silicone couplings, clamps and filter. Enlarge the opening in the fender to accomodate the larger pipe, and the figure out how you want to run the piping in the fender and you're golden. Especially if you can relocate the battery to the trunk, than you can easily get the filter tucked up under the bumper as there is more room to work w/ in the engine bay.

11 wheel horsepower on a bolt-on zetec(assuming)from a intake, that is very impresive.
