UTR CF Intake Tube?

I checking out this tube and wondering what the quality is like on it. From the pictures and what UTR says, it is actual carbon fiber. Now is it quality? Cracks? etc? notice any mild differences in high end rpm power? sound?

Looks great! Sounds a bit better but really need a pop charger or other intake to make it really sound nice. No cracks. VERY stout piece. I don't think you can break it even if you tried. I believe they had 2 versions. The first one was really rough on the inside. The new one is supposed to be made out of dry cf and so it's really smooth on the inside.


Here's my post with pics of the cf tube.

Nice, thanks for the info. Im more concerned about freeing up some resistance more than anything. I do like the fact that CF have a lower heat index, but Im debating if its worth the money.
