it's beautiful but dayum, it's 1900 bucks!!!

Just like women, with enough $$, anything can look good 
The Gruppe M intakes are truly a work of art. The one I got for my buddy's 360 was so nice looking, he actually considered putting them on the wall as a quasi art piece!
Anyone care to price out the carbon fiber airbox for the 997 that Champion sells? Wonder how much that sucker is

What price is that groupe M air box quoted? Is that 198,000 Yen? $1,627? Plus the bracket to relocate the air pump. I wish it cost less, but THAT is the caliber of part I want to see when I open my engine cover. Not that plastic piece of crap from EVOMS that has fallen appart in my engine bay.
Wouldn't it be nice if there were a middle ground, say around $1000?

That is beautiful! This is what I would expect to find under the hood. Too bad the EVOM doesn't look anything like this. It also looks like it fits much better as well. Anyone for a "gruppe buy" on this???

It is interesting how no one from EVOMS has chimed in to defend their product or to offer any of us with problems some resolution. One thing for sure, I would NEVER spend another dime with EVOMS. I don't care how good their airbox sounds or how good it works, that POS V-Flow fell apart within a year and NEVER fit right. So much for all their R&D. What's the point of packaging it in a Chinese POS?

-I am liking my K/N kit so far. It's pretty inexpensive ($280 shipped) but does seem to be pretty well made even tho it was a PITA to assemble the heat shield body.
I love the sound when you put your foot in it, but ya water concerned me as well. Would be ideal if someone made a CF coverlet for the top opening of the heatshield body.
