Chicago Area Intake Development
Hi forum, my name is John Glass, I am an engineer at R2C Performance Products in Vernon Hills, Illinois. We are looking to develop a new intake for the 2009-14 F150 and are looking for help from a vehicle owners in the Chicago area. If you would be interested in helping out we would ask you to make a series of visits to our office with your vehicle, you are able to stick around an watch the entire process, we will not ask you to leave your car here nor will we ask to drive your vehicle for any reason.
If anyone is interested in participating or has any questions about the process or R2C Performance feel free to email me at jglass@r2cperformance.com. Please include what area your are from and which engine is in your F150. I can only accept one volunteer for each engine type so I will attempt to contact those in the order I receive email responses.There is a synopsis of what happens at each visit below.
The first visit would allow us to take a 3D image of your engine bay to use during the design process along with taking critical measurements of engine components.
Second (and maybe third) visit would be to fit-up a working prototype onto your vehicle to check fitment. This can stay on your vehicle and will provide the same benefits as the final intake.
Final visit will allow us to install the final production model onto your vehicle and take installation photos to be used on the website as well as the installation instructions. You can then keep the final product in your choice of finish.
Thanks forum,
John

Yes, we have been working with street vehicles for a number of years now, we started expanding our race performance parts to street applications in 2008 and have been steadily growing our street performance division since. We have created intakes for various street
applications in cars and have been recently working on expanding our product base into trucks. If you have any more specific questions or would like to know more feel free to email me at jglass@r2cperformance.com.
