suncoast selling plenum?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Power...QQcmdZViewItem

so what is the story with suncoast selling this?
it looks like the one that was first shown in this thread when xdream was designing a plenum insert.

btw has anyone heard any progress from xdream's part.
if this part sells for 400, it makes the RSS plenum look like an excellent deal.

lol, whoa I can't believe it. I tried xdream's but at the time there were a few kinks that had to be worked because no one showed any gains.

RSS is a sponsor. Check on the right side of the page for the link. I did the install myself. Took a little less than an hour. The tough part is getting the new plenum in place. It's a tight fit.

The idea is pretty much the only thing kept the same. The old ones were just inserts for the factory t-style plenum. The new ones are a cast aluminum piece in a y-style design. They allow for much increased flow with less turbulence.

The old plenums do produce good gains. We installed at least a dozen of them on customers cars with good results and feedback. IPD felt there was still more on the table so the new design came about.

Here is an example of a 996TT ipd plenum vs. stock
