Will be interesting to see what it ends up going for, that's a bargain at the moment. I would bid but am not touching anything around the large intake pipe, after just having an oil leak fixed from the pipe that runs from the fine oil seperator to the main air pipe.

it was on last week and went for over £300 but is now re-advertised.

i was bidding on it but no way its worth that sort of money IMO.

Agreed, wont give enough extra sound and BHP for that sort of money. Just pay a little more and get a remap.

not sure - it always makes me suspicious when something ends for mad money then is re-advertised very quickly afterwards.

it went for £295 +p&p last week.

you could get a brand new carbonspeed one for £160 not so long ago from awesome

The stage 2 pipe is nothing more than bling from all the reviews I have read, the intake with filter is worth between £150-200 delivered IMO.
