Look on the US side of Ebay.

Don't get raped on the price of one over here.

I paid £55 all in for mine - that includes delivery and import fees.

One thing to keep in mind, when it comes to how a cold air induction kit works, they all do the same thing. If you want to go for a branded one, you are wasting money.

Have a look on the US Ebay - They are all pretty much the same. They generally take a couple of weeks to get here. But its worth the wait for the price.

Crikey, don't hang about, do you!

One small thing, is your car a manual or auto? I hear that the auto needs a shorter CAI due to the gearbox getting in the way or some jazz like that.

Keza -

The one you have bought looks like fairly good quality. One thing I will say is, it doesnt appear to be a full length CAI (e.g. it doesn't reach down to the bottom of the engine bay. Is this a conscious decision on your part?

Think you will find that that is just and induction kit and not a cold air induction kit. I have one fitted to mine which gives good results but sometimes when the engine is hot you can feel that the engine is not pulling as good as it could. I am buying a cold air one from the states.

You made a good choice there, and the choice anyone should be making for a full length CAI, includes the elbow also and correctly positioned vac pipe connections.
