Why have plastic when you can have aluminium and carbon fibre?

I do like the fact that the new fast intake has tunable/adjustable runners

You and your shiny bits. biggrin

How about "Because aluminium is an excellent conductor of heat," which you really don't want in the intake. wink

A conductor is better than an insulator?

Looks a tad more expensive than a FAST (could be wrong though?)and the runners look a little on the small (and short) side?

That particular one is cheaper than a (new) FAST, but needs finishing.
