Is it available with only one hole on the bottom for the IAC tube? I don't need the line going to boost bypass actuator or the line going to valve cover.

You may notice marginal throttle response increase at best but I doubt it. I will let JLP speak for his products though...

I don't know if someone brought it up earlier yet, but it sure looks like a modified Cobra one (not that there is anything wrong with that)...

Like someone else asked earlier, is it paintable? Or will you offer more colors? And most importantly, it works with other open-element type filter designs correct? No shaving required like the REM tubes?

It should be cheaper and easier to make if there is just one hole on the bottom. I know some people like a couple holes. I can only use one at a time though.

JL could sell you one with plug(s) installed in the holes at a higher cost...

I'm sure JL wishes it was that simple to change the mold. He would have to make a new mold without the holes Easter for only a few people. I don't think JL wants to pay the additional cost of fabricating a new mold for just a few customers...

I think it's possible for easter to get a smooth intake tube with one hole.

The REM ones are molded with no holes in them and then Paul uses a unibit and a drill to make the three holes. It would be extremely easy just to drill one hole and supply the proper grommet for it instead of doing all three. I can't speak for JL if his manufacturing method is the same, but if it is then a single holed one would be an easy thing to do.
