Merry Christmas to everyone, hope you had a good one! We'll be back to the grindstone come Monday and these are going ahead fullsteam! We just finished up our first batch of 3rd&4th Gen MAF adapters and are looking forward to making the 5th+ gen products now.
Just for those of you who are curious, here is a glimpse of the MAF adapter we made for the 3rd&4th Gens:

We are planning on 2 products to start:
1) 3" Short ram intake (pricing not yet available)
2) 3" MAF Sensor Tube for those integrating into a forced induction system (~$90)
Please post up your interest and commitments towards purchasing either product.

Thread is locked for now. HTPerformance, we're very happy you've developed this product, but to sell through the site you need to be a site sponsor, generally speaking. I will link the site admins to this thread to verify that this is the current forum policy (it changes occasionally and there might be options other than sponsorship available for vendors).
Please contact this email if you're interested in sponsorship: autoadvertiser@internetbrands.com.
Also if/when this thread is re-opened or a new one is started for your product, it will be in the classifieds section rather than the open boards.

Great! We have acquired a TB to use for development, haven't gauged how many people might be interested yet.
Yes, production is going to be starting. Need to get a better idea now of who is interested.

Even though I don't know how much that information would help since I'm modified.

Yes... trying to get our first Maxima product launched (3rd and 4th gen MAF product). We are finishing up the 5th-6th gen setups. Just need to get a couple local guys to dyno the prototypes for us now.

The adapter we are making for the VG, VE, and early VQ is only due to the stock housing has the MAF sensor sealed into it. With the newer style VQ, having a bolt-in sensor, it allows us to make a full MAF tube or complete Intake, rather than the piecemeal intakes that the older gen's have had to deal with.

id be down for a maftube then. Just want to make sure that its long enough to secure it to the shock tower to prevent vibrations. lets get rolling on this!

What is on our plate:
1) Finalizing Testing and Initiate Production of 2005-2009 Ford Focus Cold Air Intake (~2 weeks)
2) Finalizing Design and Prototype of 1998-2004 Ford Focus Billet Thermostat Housing (~1 week)
3) Finalizing Prototype and Testing of 5th/6th gen Intake Products (~4 weeks)
To accomplish the testing we need a couple local volunteers as I noted earlier. Their help in finalizing the prototype and testing will either speed up or slow down that timing estimate. So in the near term, we need to find local 5th and 6th gen owners who are up to the task!
We'll provide the dyno time, so if you haven't before it is a good time to get your car tested, and we'll give you a nice discount on the final product!
PM or email me at brian@htperformance.net if you are interested in volunteering.
Need to be in the New England area, we use Performance Dyno in Concord, NH.
Cheers,
Brian

timeline sounds good! the only thing I am kinda curious about is why other intake makers havent looked into blending in the MAF housing into the intake piping. What does the MAF housing consist of from the inside (plain hollow?) or is the housing at all important for the MAF itself?
I know for the 02-03 the MAF isnt even sold without the housing.

The reason they don't sell the MAF sensor alone is that they are specifically made for the Maxima in that part. I believe we may be able to source new sensors alone directly from the sensor manufacturer if someone is in need.
