Well, there is this place in Huntsville, Alabama called LMS Metal Sales, but the people there can be rude as hell. I hate dealing with rude people.

So does this Burns place have a kit of aluminum intake pipes for our stock airbox, or do you have to send them the demensions and they cut and bend them for you?

It's custom... you have to pick out your own parts for your own design so the price will vary.
