Ok, I'll throw this out there now.....

........ what would be an acceptable price to everyone for a kit similar to the Power Engineering pieces?

I am targeting somewhere around $200-$250.

Ducting would be included, but "funnels" or "channels" for the front bumper would not as everyone will want their own solution for their own bumper (OEM Evo 7, 8, 9, or aftermarket).



FWIW, I already have prototype pieces in the works!

200-250 with long enough ducting... that's a perfect price. you'd move a lot of these for everyone who's serious about tracking their evo... and you might get cross over customers too, those running hte same brembo caliper.

i know i'd buy one for sure. but then again i was thinking about making one :\

I'm not trying to steal the thunder of anyone trying to make their own kits.

Hell, props to you guys for the DIY mods.

We just have the ability to mass produce something like this and my boss wanted it done, so we're working on it!



I will actually be testing them on my car, but thanks for the offers!

Mike I would be interested. Also consider adapting the front intake ducts too. I got the feeling that a lot of people who track their cars are still running the OEM front bumper.

I am honestly looking into this as a possibility as well, but I would prefer to offer a solution that will be compatible with multiple front bumpers as many people won't be using their OEM bumper and there is the Evo 7 and 9 cars that this kit will be applicable to as well.

I am looking into it however!

The Evo 9 front bumper should be easy. I think the ducting could easily be adapted to the holes in the front bumper with little more than some hose clamps.

i want this very bad!!
hope u'll have them made and ready to be sold by next summer
200$ sounds good (hose + rotor ducting plate)
u can leave the work of the bumper side ducting up to pple
since everyone has different bumper,

subscribing - what's the status.

I personally would prefer a complete package (ie with the front bumper adapter, etc), but i understand the issue
