i would be up for it mate, let me know when you need and how much money needs to be transferred to your account, i just checked his website out and it lists the price at $130 what was the cost of shipping? i'm just trying to understand what discount he is offering thats all.

Hes doing a deal on shipping normally $40 a set will do the 4 sets for $20 total shipping as end of season sale ! with the shipping and import duty i recon on total cost of a pair of velocity stacks Â£92-Â£95. the item cost is the same i.e $130 but by splitting the $20 and Â£20 import between 4 of us ist a saving

they look shorter tahn stock, so my 1st guess is that they are for top end power not mid range, but I am sure there are people who have tried them and can advise. I think the SuperHawk team have used them in USA

fashionista!!!!!!!!! hahahaha, on a serious note, i to am interested in grunt not top end hence the reason for a bigger rear sprocket. i've no real interest in 140/150mph but serious accleration is where it's at,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

I used two long velocity stacks, rather than one short one long, as recommended by Tony M. You can really feel the difference in the midrange. Cost me Â£9 off the Bay, but they are only the stock plastic. You know how Gok Kwong can be soooo negative about airbox fashion errors!!!!!!!
I still think fashion tart sums it up better than fashionista matey peeps.

These are the long billet runners and are indeed tuned for mid-range. I have been running exact copies of these for over two years now and they work very well (had a batch of these made locally two years ago and I beleive I had posted here asking for participants). A superhawkforum member tried them on his dyno and reported as much as a 5 bhp gain in the mids, with no loss in top-end (compated to OEM runners).

These are a great mod.

cheers

I dont get it...

If these are the trumpet things that go in the air box, they are below the filter so arent visible yes? Why 'bling' them up?
