See when it was built. You do not want one of their original versions, unless it is for looks only.

Don't see the spam, just ebay. Price looks high to me, I paid less than half of what this guy is asking.

To be honest, I dunno if there were changes. i didn't keep up. I'd assume, there have been product inprovements as with any life cycle. For me, our motors are all about restriction. The good that the CF box does is add volume on the filtered side for better launches. Once blowing, I only see restriction as a factor. Given that, I would compare the volume and TB connection design of the eBay one vs a new RT one.

How is that? .

Thanks!

Great makes sense! Thanks for the reply as always!!! best regards, Joseph

I finally got my 80mm TB and will be looking for CF Airbox VRP or Renntech! But I have been wondering about VRP's new Top mount Intercooler set up that probably wont allow for CF Airbox but I have not heard of specifics...

Yep, was just surfing the Bay and saw some things I thought might be of interest and shared them. For anyone who doesn't use tinyurl.com when posting a long link, all I can say is why not?

Because it hides the real address and causes suspicion.

Yes it does shorten the address, but no one really cares.

+1

Whether it's a short addy or a long one, it is only a click of the mouse for us or anyone else for that matter. Also all you have to do is highlight the whole link...copy and paste anywhere...

But just my 2 cents...do whatever floats yer boat...
