View Poll Results: Are you committed to buying an R2C Intake once available?
So after MaxLoverAz mentioned the R2C Intake in the Fujita thread, I started doing my research and came to the conclusion that this would be the intake to get if it were available for the 7th gen.
I emailed Ed from R2C and this is a snippet of what he said:
I’d like to have a system available for the ’09 ASAP. The interest in the earlier Maxima has been extremely high. I haven’t had an opportunity to evaluate the new Maxima under hood. I imagine it’s considerably different.
Do you have an under hood photo? In your opinion, how popular would an intake be on these applications?
I sent him a photo and let him know that interest would be very high. These intakes look amazing and have alot of engineering put not only into the tubing, but also the filters. They really look superior to any other type of filter out there. Anyway, he is reviewing the photo and will keep me informed of any updates. Hopefully this will get the ball rolling for them.

Yeah I agree really nice work! We just need to find someone in the Chicago area with an 09 to "donate" for surgery if R2C decides it's worth the time and investment... I hope so!

I'm in if they need a donor car. I'm in the burbs 20 mins South of Chicago

How'd it go? Who did you meet? Did you drop the car off or stay and watch them rip out the stock intake, do the scan (way cool how it's done), and put the stock intake back in?

Cool guys over there. I met Ed and Ron, talked CAD with them and saw their computer station. Good stuff.
I had to catch a flight so I didn't have much time, but I'm confident that this will be THE intake when the final production unit is released.
do you have any info on when the final production is gonna be released?
It'll take awhile. These guys do everything from scratch while everyone else just reverse engineers. Ideally they'd want some before/after dynos but with a CVT I'm not sure what they would do. I'd give them a few months.

I'm hoping by the holidays... It would make a great christmas gift...

Precisely. These guys are perfectionists to say the least and won't disappoint.
They flow tested the stock unit to see where improvements can be made and assured me that the finished product will be well worth the wait.
Feel free to call Ed or Ron for release date info as that will also solidify it's demand.
I was actually looking at the Dyno Graph for an 04, and it seems its a 10-20 Hp increase. hopefully that will be the same for the 7th gen, I wish they made a 5.5 gen one.
There isn't one, but I think we should start one just to give them an idea on how many are interested. I went through the thread to piece together who would seriously be interested or not, and it's between 5 and 11 somewhere. If we start a list, we might be first.....you know what I'm sayin?
