Not that I know of. I thought they addressed this issue with the leaky cap, Humm maybe I should keep a eye out.

Right on. When doing custom fab work it basically comes down to how much you want to spend. Somebody with the skills that can do it themselves is way ahead of the curve. The D3 unit is a nice piece and while they could make something bigger to fit somewhere else, it would be more labor intensive and not as profitable.

my .02 if you want to do this on a budget and make it as easy on labor as possile
1. rotofab cai $399 2. lower pulley 9.55 ring $560 3. stainless works catless 1 7/8 headers $650 4. id 850's $920 5. ron davis HX $550 6. idler relocation and pulley $199 7. tune $399 8. belt 9. arp balancer bolt ~$3700 this should compete with any package that does not go into the motor that these tuning places sell for way more and could be done in a day to the car.

So it seems that were good with just changing out the lower? Does anyone change out both? Or is it just easier to change the lower and leave the top alone.
On my 2011 SS I added a SC, LTs, two different Cams, Alky....the list goes on. I just don't wanna play that game. I just would like a couple simple parts and 600rwhp on TAP.

I would say you'll make 600. I believe just doing the lower is fine to achieve what you are looking for. Less labour and cost. There is also a 10" lower. 28%. A guy could pickup a little more boost with it. We tuned my wife's car pretty safe also. The car was also cammed but mostly for a lope at idle

A 9.55 lower would be 20,700 and adding a 2.55 upper would be 24,300. All at 6500rpm engine speed. Another option would be the Texas Speed 9.4 lower for $350. Combine that with the 2.55 upper if you need more to down the road and you would be around 23k blower speed. Also, the Lingenfelter balancer is made by ATI. It's cheaper to buy it from ATI as you aren't paying for the Lingenfelter label on it. Although I'm not sure if they sell the 10" direct or if that's a Lingenfelter exclusive piece. To the list posted above, it's the Stainless Power headers that are $650. Stainless Works are over a grand. I bought some Engine Ice coolant to try in my blower coolant system to see if it helps with the IAT2 and recovery time. I still plan on adding a reservoir, but want to get some data with the Engine Ice before I do.

with the HX the datalogs will really tell the stock honeslty. you could add these parts. datalog on a normal day then a warmer day. you just dont' want a package that gets your iat2's past ~138 degrees on a somewhat normal day or you will always be down on power due to pulled timing as well as hot intake temps. some have hinted at the fuel system being somewhat tapped out as well and other seem to be fine that is a variable you will want to stay on top of as well.
