Hey, I saw this intake on ebay and was wondering if anyone here has bought one from this guy. I think I might buy one in a month or so, but I wanted some feedback.

Those pictures are just taken from Dolecek Racing's website, if its not John selling the intake on Ebay, someone should let him know. Anyways, I just bought all the parts to make a CAI and I'm just waiting now for my silicon couplings to come in so I can put it all together. I think I spent around $80 for everything including shipping. There's a how-to article on making one and if anyone has any questions about it you can ask me too. I wouldn't spend $120 on that one on ebay though, I'd rather just build it myself, its cheaper and more fun too.

Nope, they're not made to fit the GT although I have had customers that bought them and supposedly made them work on a GT. I don't recommend that, but there aren't a lot of other options unless you want to make one yourself.

Have you ever thought about making them for the GT, it could be a money maker, you never know cuz it seems like there's always people asking about it

Because of issues with the cruise control box and where it's located on the ST204, making a cold air intake without excessive bends and with good flow is very difficult. I think that's why he hasn't done it.
