that's a good price $200 cheaper than what I was quoted but I've already picked up a KPM.

Anyone looking for air intake here is one that NVT found us. Good find mate.

Regarding sucking in hot air, the standard airbox is on the cold side of the motor, so temps are quite tame in that area. I'd say that's probably why Mr Ford has the intake pipe crossing over like it does in the first place.

As soon as you're doing more than 10kmph, cold air absolutely belts in around the airbox from the side of the radiator support panel and headlight surround. You're going to see virtually no intake difference.

Further more, when it hits the turbo it'll be heated up massively, so even if there are a few degrees difference at the intake those differences will be negligible after is passes through (or very close to) the red-hot sections of a glowing turbo.

It's because since the crossflow motor was introduced the intake piping has been on that side as that's the "intake side"... not because that's where cold air is!

I would be blocking off the holes you cut in the side of the box as that's where the "hot air" is and just cut the hole bottom out on the front and run some cheap ducting under the headlight.

As for a cold night/day, it is the cold air that has the engine making more power!

The Streetfighter Airbox recieves cool dense Air from over headlight and grill directly. There is no under bonnet hot air at all.

Coupled with the Massive 5 inch BMC Twin Air Filter it recives the largest delivery of any airbox on the market.

Would be happy to negate price of freight for the Streetfighter Airbox as well as the KPM1000cc Injectors.

I will also throw in the Race cover.

Both direct fit

Overnight Freight

Nothing still waiting, bloody courier overnight must mean something different in SA
