Is anyone familiar with the cold air intake system from OS Intakes? I've exchanged a few emails with the guy, but he seems very cautious about revealing a lot of information about his system, I guess for fear that I will steal his idea. I like the fact that it picks up air from below the car, and includes a hydro-lock device to prevent water from entering the system. Let me know if you have any real experience with this vendor -- not really looking for comments on why I shouldn't consider it.

Checking it on my work computer, the counter resets. Other browser it resets, so it just tells you how many times you have been there on the browser you're using... which doesn't give the site too much credibility as that's not how counters usually work.

The guy seems pretty wacky based on the email responses that 'Steve' got on page 2 of this samba thread about it.
