Very interested. A system like this is fairly simple to fabricate and thus should not be crazy in price. Do you have anymore photos? Possibly without the front bumper on?

Hopefully with a big group buy, we can drive down costs significantly.

I would be interested as long as their is a solution for intake filters not sucking water from front, like a bypass or shield.
But Id probably still be interested, I do live in SoCal and it rains like 5 days a year here.

If you need an investor/marketing the intake I am willing to help.

you can always cover them with the water and dirt proof shield.

How well do those work and how often would they need to be replaced? Definitely interested though!

Cost involved for developing almost anything is high.
Doesn't mean Black will charge each person what he paid to develop it.

Basic marketing:

Cost of Material
Cost of Labor
Cost of Packaging and shipping
Cost of Marketing (doesn't apply here yet)
And a bump up for the time involved (Cost bump)

Yes for me to come out even i would have to sell 10-15 units if i keep very low cost... at that point it would become more of a headache than anything else.
