I'll probably be selling it on though as I've almost had enough of the noise lol

My LHD Ed. 30 didn't have any noticeable fitting problems with the canister rubbing the coolant elbow. Also, the turbo intake silicone tube has enough flex to remove the rest of the intake pipe from the front grill bracket, so I think there're enough flex in the pipes for the engine to move around. Also, the canister isn't stuck to the front grill bracket so it can move a few centimetres forward and backward, if needed.
Love the sound it makes and I got 20 BHP after removing the OEM air box with a ITG/VWR panel filter. Can't really complain here other than its price. I just ordered one on the Black Friday sale, so it was a bit cheaper. :smiley:

Fitted it today took my time with it to make sure there's plenty of clearance and I'm happy with it the only thing I'm not happy with is where it goes into the front grille, I think it should be attached in some way instead of just resting in there I feel like it's ether going to pop out or knock with any engine movement but saying that I took it for a good run today and all is good. Also cutting the hole for the dv pipe was a pita. I still feel for £440 which I think is the most expensive intake you can buy for these cars should be made to fit better and not have to cut holes in it.

I've had to remove my ramair several times for whatever reason and glad I haven't got these fancy filters as it'd drive me crazy taking it off all the time to do simple tasks :doh:
