I am sure they have, however it was the staggering number that that experience failures with the '99 to '01-1/2 that launched the class action lawsuit...

Do those have problems cracking too; or is that one a lot closer to 100% reliable then the plastic manifold with the aluminum crossover?

Exactly.. And if it does break, buy something that wont. Thats the only time id spring for a bullitt intake or a TF intake. Both PI intakes are prone to break.

I put 5-600 miles a week on my car and I need this car to be reliable, I can't have this intake crack on me 2 hours from home, thats why I'm asking about a full metal intake that won't crack

If I had to replace mine I'd look into the Typhoon, I wouldn't expect any performance increase but it looks "trick"...

Typhoon!

It's the same design as the Ford PI, just completely aluminum.
