Thanks for your interest! We believe our production batch is about one month out. Pricing has not been finalized.

Dang! This looks nice! Unfortunately I just sold my PRL HVI/Titanium inlet 🥲

Guessing all of the pieces together will increase volume and spool for a nice little bump in performance? I can't wait to start getting bolt ons for mine.
It is fair to expect improved airflow but we do expect any performance differences to be somewhat minimal. This product was designed mostly for improving the appearance under the hood by getting rid of the plastic OEM elbow piece.

I just want something that's a little more convenient to remove/reassemble than the assortment of zigsaw pieces that the prl cai/turbo inlet has. This fits the bill.

Understandable. Thank you and I agree with OP, it'll be easier to work with.

Maybe unrelated, but will TSP or PRL ever support a race MAF? I know the fk8 had one, but I haven't seen one from PRL specifically for the FL5/DE5

I think the reason why there hasn’t been a “Race MAF” for the FL5 is because the OEM one is a completely new design. If someone can correct me on this but I think the FL5 uses Frequency output MAF, extending the range of the sensor compared the FK8. No upgrade is needed, or we would’ve already seen something from Hondata, PRL or other companies by now.

Bingo! The Race MAF housing existed to facilitate measurement of additional airflow. This can be accomplished with the native FL5/DE5 MAF sensor, simplifying the process for all due to there no longer being a need for a larger housing or alternative sensor.

@Two Step Performance I assume this will work with the factory inlet pipe and PRL HVI?
Great question. It will not fit. This kit is specifically designed for connecting the PRL HVI to the PRL inlet pipe. Any PRL HVI (plastic or carbon) and any PRL inlet pipe (titanium or carbon) is fine.

Because of differences in fitment and positioning we cannot confirm fitment with any other setups. However, if this variant does well we will explore other fitment options.

I'm glad I asked!! Thanks for the information. Now I'm tempted to get a matte carbon inlet pipe and this coupler when it comes out!
