I tried contacting them, support@skunk2.com, but no response

I obviously don't have any real measurements of the intake, so I guessed the intake runner length and size from their pics, and depending on your app, it doesn't look good for a street engine.

I plugged my guessed runner dimensions into my SolidWorks model, and looks like for a street engine you'd loose power, certainly loose power below around 9000. The runners are too short and too fat, velocity goes down.

Their ultra series street (k series anyway) is PERFECT, but looks like they only intend ( if at all) to make the race version .

I'm tempted to buy their ultra street for the k series and weld it onto an s2000 intake flange.

That was my concern when I viewed the prototype picture, not likely optimal for a street driven setup.

I've been waiting on Jason's test, I saw it installed while he was waiting on the TB. I saw the dyno on FB.

Skunk2 has 10 days to put this out. Hopefully my new credit card will come in time.

NA wont see major results; FI I'm willing to bet atleast +30 from just the swap an re-tune. idk how long you all have had your S2's but even there pro series improves FI more then NA, NA plenums is an art, usually someone that is very smart and makes one off plenums for APPLICATION thats the plenum that wins. Whats the rev range? where you want the power? whats the flow? max rpm? all that kind of stuff, and then a plenum is made to spec and it will outperform other mass produced "performance" intakes.

I feel very confident in our plenum at stock liters, now if you stroke it, cam it, yes obviously the stocker is not "ideal anymore"

Ill just say right now for your knowledge, Im kinda biased towards them, they make some, some great products but if your not gonna but 150% into everything you make and only sell SOME great products and chinese the shit out of everything else. . . its just bad rep I feel.
I could go on.
