Hybrid inlets?
So it seems the tough part of stock-side inlet installs is fitting the rear inlet between the firewall and the engine. And hot-side inlets require relocating a bunch of stuff.
Is anyone coming out with hybrid inlets? Let the rear turbo have a hot side inlet and just reposition the overflow tank or replace with the 335d tank, and have the front turbo use a stock-side inlet? Then you could at least keep the vacuum cans in the same spot or use a z4 mount. It might even be easier to bring the PCV vacuum source from the rear to the front turbo inlet with additional room in the back of the stock side. edit- Like the S55 intakes.

We have a hybrid setup that will be released shortly. You'll have an OEM location rear inlet and a passenger side front intake. It won't require relocating the coolant tank but you will have to relocate the vacuum canisters which is significantly easier.
