***EDIT***
Well I just bit the bullett and bought the Volant Intake system for my ED30 (Will need K04 pipe adding), I had found them on ebay for $265USD inc free shipping (£168.42)to my US address (have a good mate lives there) and was going with that but after 30 minutes searching on google I found a website that had it priced at $257 Shipped and you could make an offer :happy2: so I offered $238.70 (£155) and it rejected offer :sad1: BUT it came back with a counter offer $243.47 (£158.09 Shipped) :jumpmove: so I went for it :wink:
Sorry for not waiting for the group buy, but if I see it and want it and have the money its done :signLOL:
Good thing is my mate will make sure its Well packaged for its journey to the UK :happy2:

So did you buy it with delivery to the UK? Or are you saying that you paid $243 shipped to your friend in the US who is then going to ship it to you?
Sorry, your last post was a little confusing. :ashamed:
So if all works well are you and your American friend going to sort a groupbuy? :popcornsoda:

Sorry that was last post before bed, not written too clearly I think :signLOL:
The price (£158.09) includes shipping to my mate in USA, he will post it on to me at actual cost to him (I do the same for him with items he buys from UK :happy2:) so all is well (Would imagine post will be around £40) , he will also make sure its packed properly for its journey over the pond.
I was not planning on a group buy as the OP was organising that, dont want to be treading on toes do I. :happy2:

Cheers Tam, :happy2:
Amazing price none-the-less. :laugh:
So you are looking at £200ish to your door, (plus maybe a bit for the duty) and then £26 for the K04 25mm Take-off hose adapter on ebay.

Looks an Awesome bit of kit. The pipe looks HUGE where it meets the air box. :laugh:
Still, as someone else mentioned, It would be interesting to see how it handles engine movement.
It looks a very rigid design.
Tamiyoman:
Yes it will be good to see how it handles movement, I suspect that there is room at the front (Airbox side) for movement there, they designed it for best delivery of clean/cold air, cold air from front and also no pipe joins so no restriction to flow, and that large pipe at box end contains the filter hence its size :happy2:
Yes about £200 all in I hope inc shipping, then just buy the take off for £20 and get it fitted, either way it makes a difference to seeing a TT or ITG and at £150 less than those 2 :notworthy:
donovan2123:
Yes I will be hopefully organising a group buy.
I had response regarding gen 1 and 2 difference and the response I got was:
The Gen 2 and the Gen 1 are the same size filters, the difference is the Fluting or Channeling where the dirt is trapped – Once we have more info I will send it to you. We greatly appreciate your interest in this kit and I can assure you that once we have all the components in stock I will take good care of your Forum Members.
so I think the best thing to do is just be patient for now
