Their the main maker and distributor of the Frankencar intakes. But you can buy a PR Cai and just use the upper tube. It's the same. This way if you don't like the Cai you can use the upper tube and make a short ram.

Strange, I got mine pretty quickly. I guess Steve is really busy or something.

I have a frankencar w/ apexi on order as well. It was ordered 4/29 and still nothing. I have been in conversation with steve and he has reassured me that they are on the way.. Hope this thing is worth it. If anyone has any other info to provide it would be helpful
Thanks

Guys, i put mine on almost 3 month ago...ordered end of february. I recieved mine 3 weeks later. Worth every penny, but they didnt ship me all the parts. So i forced it to work...bought a part, and it sits fine...mind u, with teh apexi filter, its a tight fit next to the battery and the wires. Better off using a normal filter, so u dont have to use the second adapter.

Anyone got a spare MAF adater for 2k2? I got my intake kit almost 2 weeks ago, but the MAF adapter is missing. Numerous voicemails and emails to Steve but no response.

TIA!
