Hey Guys... Quick update..

The Airtubes & engine cover are 2 weeks away.. The 80mm Gen 2 airboxes are a few weeks out.. We are waiting on the composites shop to run our boxes (timing for getting the manufacturing time wasnt ideal for us)..

They will be ready after the airtubes & engine cover are done.

Hang in there guys.. This is the last of the 3 versions of the airbox to be done.. This is what is going in my car also, so I am patiently waiting right along with you guys.

While we were waiting for the revised mold for the airbox, they were working on completing the airtubes & covers... It just worked out that way..

Soon, it will all be done and then you can stare at your beautiful engine compartment to your hearts content.

I checked in with them yesterday and they said everything is still on schedule.. No one is more anxious than I am to receive them.. I still dont even have an airbox on my car because I keep sending them to people that have been waiting.. LOL..

It doesnt fit because of the tb inlet orientation but I would be interested in one for my Kleemann CLK55 as well

Doubt it

I doubt it would fit the Kleemann ones due to the height of the Kleemann supercharger.

You guys are not considering the angle of the throttle body inlet. It wont fit a Kleemann s/c car

Carbon Fiber Python Tubes & Engine Covers have landed!!!!!

I bought 30 pieces of each.. 17 are pre-sold.. That leaves 13 pieces in case anyone is thinking of buying.. That's all I've got in this first run.. So if you want them, get them QUICK before they disappear. It will be weeks before I can get another run because now I am waiting on the final batch of Airboxes.

Next week they will be packed and shipped...

Now... I've been trying to figure out the best way to handle the payments & submission.. There are people that left a deposit on 1 item.. some left deposits on both.. New people want to buy.. etc, etc.. Too many scenarios...

What I've done is created a few different links in the purchase page based on what your situation is. Please select the appropriate button that matches your situation and read the description carefully..

Here is a breakdown so there is no confusion:

- Engine covers: $550USD. Converted to CDN that's $595
- Python Tubes: $650USD. Converted to CDN that's $700

For shipping.. I am going to charge a flat $90CDN.. Based on what I had to pay out for the airboxes to be shipped, this is a fair estimate to cover most of the states. (In case this ends up being too much, trust me to refund you the difference once they have been shipped and I get the invoice from Fedex.)

Now.. I promised a discount for those people that had airboxes.. I can extend 10% off those prices, but in order to keep this as simple as possible, I will have to send you guys back the 10% as a paypal payment. Otherwise I will have to create double the number of links.. I hope you guys understand.

Here is the Purchase link again: http://69.17.158.20/vrus/purchase.htm

Hey Victor, Ive refreshed 1,000 times.. Im using a Mac, it says

Safari can’t connect to the server.
Safari can’t open the page “http://69.17.158.20/vrus/purchase.htm” because it could not connect to the server “69.17.158.20”.
