C4 Blackwing?
Is there a Blackwing intake for the C4, specifically the L98? I've heard good things about them from the C5 guys and i might ask for one for Christmas!! If there is one then please post a link if you know where it is. Thanks! :D

Re: C4 Blackwing? (Zidane)
Since they are made right here in MN...here was the last scoop I heard...
The company that makes the Blackwing did so by "accident" of sorts. They make filter for big trucks and machines...not performance cars.
I guess there was a time over the summer where they even stopped producing the C5 Blackwing...and companies had backorders up the wazoo! Last I heard...they were going to start making them again (probably did start, I just haven't talked with anyone recently).
There are production ready models of a Blackwing for the C4, Mustang, and one other car (can't remember)...but the company isn't prepared to make them (it sounded like they didn't want the hassel).
There is a local business guy that wants to produce what they have...but last I talked to him they couldn't strike a deal.
Keep in mind...all this info is 2 months old when I spoke directly to my "contact".
If Joe is on CF still (haven't seen her in a while), maybe she'll give us an update.
