While the CyberEvo duct might "look" cool, it's a one off component that they themselves have repeatedly said they will never put into production for any amount of money due to the difficulty in manufacturing it and properly adapting it to the headlight.

What EvoDave has done, while not as "ornate", and slightly simpler, is still very difficulty by anyone's manufacturing standards.

Anyone's who's familiar with spinning aluminum or any type of cutting, welding, etc. of any kind of piping will tell you it's not an easy thing to get the right angle and outward rolled lip to a piece like that .

Then, you still have to consider having the thing sealed to the headlight housing, and routed through the and sealed in the back as well to be positioned near an intake.

When you consider ALL of that and the fact that EvoDave offers the piece and to install it on your headlight for you with a LIFETIME Warranty on the materials, workmanship, etc., it's a smoking bargain regardless of how it looks, and you can sure you won't see it on every Evo around.

(because Evo's are as commonplace as beige Camry's anyway).


+1, you gotta give Dave some props on his work. But, if you are willing to pay, someone may step up and help you out. Good luck.

PS. . . I wanna see completed pics!

I have seen it on a local evo around here. It was made out of painted black PVC piping though, and you could plug it up with a cap so that you didn't have to run it open all the time for those who are worried about water etc...

You'll probably get your air filter pretty dirty pretty fast.
