ITB's are not street friendly let alone different weather climate's that most people drive through. Sheet metal intakes are being made by a couple of companies in different forms. He could try producing them, but probably won't get a lot of money back from it.

Who has Sheet metal intakes for NA set up. All the intakes I've seen are tuned for boost

Also the idea of head packages and larger throttle bodies(diameter) have been tossed around. Can I say what the company is or is that taboo with out permission

Which Part?

I just cant see the factory design being very good in design. Very turbulant design. Also my understanding is that they made the intake based around fuel economy.

you're talking about a different one, not the current one they offer on their website as for "FI and N/A applications" right?

I've had numerous talks with them on concept and design on the manifold and they swear even the N/A guys are happy with how it performs. Dyno results should be coming soon. I thought the plenum was to large myself but we'll wait and see.
