I'm not sure I get what you're saying.
Anway, the IHI RHF4 is quite a big turbo so I'll have to fit it somewhere near the battery from what I've been told, on top of exhaust manifold. So its inlet would be kinda in a straight line to the airbox pipe. |

Its made from stainless steel. The filter has to be the type with the rubber frame because the front frame on the airbox clamps and seals it with the six bolts. Like this.... |

Its made from 1.5mm 304 stainless steel so its not like a tin can and its about the best material for keeping its bling. Its a full kit Lord its got a shiny pipe to the turbo silicon connectors and stainless steel hose clips. |

steve, if you've got a spare one of these made, come RSCS time, could you bring it along. I've been looking for an airbox to drop in the space where my IC used to live and one of these might just fit the bill (mounted sideways) (would save me having to make up my own) |

No problem Don. This ones the prototype from which ill copy. Ive had to alter the front size to accommodate the K&N filter. Even if it doesn't fit i could probably tweak one for you |

Would you be able to give me a quote to Australia for the under braces? blue is hot!
I am assuming they are using standard M8 or M10 bolts? |

You can re use the original bolts. Sometimes they need a little more clearance on the rear bar depending on what exhaust you have. A simple check can clarify any clearance problems Which i will explain in photographs before i send any bars out. Ive based clearance on my cappo wich has a 50mm Suzuki sport exhaust so it should fit most out of the box. More clearance can be achieved by spacers that i can supply if required. |

The filter comes with the kit and has a million mile warranty its cleaned and re used. K&N filters and cleaning kits are available worldwide i would assume they are available in Australia. Australian group buy maybe?

Im sure we could work something out
