Well... Got a bit of bad news. The first independent tester reports that the intake doesn't seem to have very good street manners. I'm not exactly how or why as I drove around with the intake in various stages and/or configurations for 10k miles on my own car, and I never noticed any of the problems reported either on the street or at the track. So I'm going to have to bite the bullet and move the MAF sensor into the tube and get it away from the opening of the velocity stack which will hopefully give it better street manners... He also suggested that in it's current configuration that perhaps it's a "tune only" intake so I guess it's not a total loss...
More bad news... I've been waiting for about 3 weeks now to here something on the silicone intake tube progress from the manufacturer... For some reason they claim they never received the email with the Solidworks drawing for the tube, but after digging through their email they found it... So now that's running behind schedule as well.
So along with the airbox redesign, I will have to start playing with the MAF location and watching fueling again once the MAF is moved into the tube.
