intake prototype II (installed)
as you all know, im the guy that messes around with intakes, my last design used a long vent hose to suck air directly from the bottom of the front bumper, tho this was good idea. the car had major idling problems, and the filter was getting beat up by rocks on the road. my Prototype II is a step better. it is similar to the SR and RE, i have a heat shield box with a heat shiled shroud around the cone filter just like the SR intake..... i have some picks posted. sorry for the quality i didnt have time to get a digi cam. illl take some pictures of the installed intake tomorow. as for the performance, i can feel the RPM's go up faster......not much..but enough that i can tell......the sound is awesome.....its deep and loud as hell if u floor it....and for the heat issues...i think my dual heat shield works wonders! =) i will be at the OC meet to show off the intake next week.....

but have you actually tested it scientificly with atmospheres of pressure to see if this is even helping or making it worse. when you said idling problem maybe you did poorly and there was less pressure then b4. not to be an ***. just 1 thought

eh. it's non-official. it's something a group of us RX8club guys do because we like to hang out more than once a month. We do it on Thursday nights in Buena Park. There is a thread called OC Weekly planner in the west forums that you can get more info from.
