Greville and the list,

While I try to avoid the 'product plugs' to the list...I think it's both
appropriate, and answers the question here.

Vibrant Performance now has a complete line of Universal Air-Intake Tubes
available.  These are aluminum pipes suitable for creating air-intake piping,
and/or intercooler piping on turbo vehicles. The piping comes in 2", 2.5",
2.75" and 3" Diameters.  Each size is produced in a straight section (18"
long), 90 degree bends (13" long) and 45 degree bends (15" long).  We have
silicone sleeves and reducers to joing pieces as well.  Sleeves are available
in both standard and re-inforced styles. We have stainless steel worm clamps to
put it all together, and for where you need vacuum hose we have a number of
sizes of silicone hose available: 1/8", 5/32", 3/16", 1/4" and 3/8". Silicone
hose is available in Blue, Red, Silver and Yellow for Huw...should he be so
inclined.

If cone filters are your thing we have them in two different styles, as well as
a pretty interesting stainless steel filter that I'd personally only use for
racing.

In the case of some Audi's, the above products can be used to create your own
air-intake system.  Due to the design of the fuel/metering head in the 10V non
turbo engines it's not possible to create an air intake system using the above
parts.  Well, at least not one that would have any benefit.

I'm not familiar enough with the V6 engines, but I know Mik Tip has a cone
filter installed in his...so something is certainly possible.

Turbo guys such as Javad and Jim Green would know much better then I if they
have some use on the turbo cars.

Vibrant Products are available from a large number of places in both Canada and
the US, just check our website (click distributors at the top) to find out. If
you can't find a retailler in your area, you can always purchase from
www.driverfx.com.

Having said all of the above I must make two key points to answer all the un-
air-intake related email I'm about to recieve:

1) It is not my intention to use the list as an advertising board for
Vibrant...check the archives, I've maybe mentioned the products three times in
the last year.  So, stop flaming me for it before you start! (happens every
time!)

2) I _really_ would like to put together a Group buy system for Audifans.  I
don't have the time to ship out to individual listers though...so I need some
help.  I'm willing to put together a group buy for Audifans listers if I can
find enough people who can recieve a large shipment, and then farm it out to
individual listers. In exchange for your time I'll set up the pricing so that
the 're-shipper' can earn a percentage of the sales.  We'll also toss a
percentage of the sales over to Dan for running Audifans. If you want to HELP
with a group buy...contact me.  Otherwise, there is no group buy until you hear
otherwise! :-)

Greville, I'll look at your V6 engine this thursday at the WT_audifans meet (if
you're still coming). If I think we can create something, you can join me one
night at the office.  I've got all the prototyping equipment for air
intakes...so I'm pretty sure we can create something for your car!
Besides...I do it for Honda's all the time ;-)

-Dave
