Even with 30 people, it is going to be a stretch to get the cost below $250/unit, and all that would be doing is covering my costs. So at the minimum it will take 30 people who are legitimately interested for me to get the design files. I will tell you, it is going to look exactly like the stock part. Wider opening near the turbo, and no accordion. The shape will be identical and the hose will have a smoother transition of size from the intake side to the turbo side. There will be an aluminum fitting molded into the silicone for both the turbo fitting and the crank case vent fitting.

How much is the total cost of getting the design files? Maybe we can Split it as a community for a solid product. I'm not a fan of the pure cut and stick together with the oem piece of pipe. |
We're looking at around $400 for the files, which includes a photorealistic rendering of the final product. If people want to pitch in to get at least that done I would be more than happy to get them asap.
From there the next most expensive part is 3d prototyping to check fitment.
