I like the concept but the filter looks very small for the amount of air ingested by both turbos.

With some design refinement it'd be great, 2 separate filters take too much space.

if the price is reasonable, just get it...the welds look good from the pic and you can have a part that no one else has

It looks good except for the smallish filter.

The whole point of buying an aftermarket intake, is to increase performance. This intake appears to sacrifice some performance for some "bling". Anyone who buys this isn't serious about performance.
