Since no one seems to make carbon fiber intake runners for my VW 2287cc (and I doubt I could afford them if they did), I decided to try to make them myself. I have a few sections left to finish, but the 90° elbow and a "test" coupler/transition piece seem to have turned out ok. They are incredibly stiff, very light, and very glossy. My goal is to shave about 4 pounds off my Sonerai's total weight by replacing the steel intake runners with these carbon fiber sections.
