right guys defo need this lol .. but its seems reaaally expensive on awesome GTI ... is there anywhere i can get this induction kit cheaper ???

thank yooooooo

 

[Vincec79]

Short answer - No. This has been asked many times before.

Long Answer - Awesome hold the exclusive sales rights to this country, so no. People have talked about getting it direct from Carbonio because with the dollar being very weak at the moment you could get are really good deal.

However if you try this Carbonio now just tell you to go to Awesome and they won't sell it to you direct.

So best bet is to wait for a group buy, thats what I did anyway.

They're ?145 retail in the states + shipping + inport taxes, so would be hard to get them much cheaper than our price.... plus its easier to return it to us for any reason if need be

Doubt i'll be able to run a GB on them though since we dont make enough on them

I will be offering a group buy on the Neuspeed CAI in the near future same design just not carbon fibre and cheaper

 

[Viperpsych]

I have one. they sound sweet.

 

[zekegti]

You can buy them thru Carbonia direct. Around ?150 delivered

zeke - have a look at their site - they have raised their prices in the last week - and APR now handle distribution.

I agree, i was so close to buying one online from Awesome a while back, but i got the final page just before confirming which displayed the price with VAT which at the time, i didn't think would be that much but it pushed it over ?200... So i decided to back out at the last minute.

I know they can't, but i just wish they could do them for the price without VAT! []

i ordered mine thru awesome, i borrowed the money off my dad to pay for it.. i was quite shocked when the vat and delivery was added, kinda put me off but i really wanted it so i just went through with it.. i do love the sound it gives off.. ah well too late now

[vwcr]

Just wondering whats the different between carbonio and the ones that vwspeed.co.uk sell?

 

[Tim Sims]

is it all one fit... do the petrol ones fit the diesel cars?

 

[golfturbo]

Does anyone have any running problems with their Carbonio?? I'm sure I read some time back that there were issues....

 

[Vinny ZS]

hmm if any of u have had probs .. pls put them up on here .. i remember readin summin about them too.. fact that they were takin in alot of the dirt / salt from the road durin the messed up weather ?? i think ... cos the cone bit of the filter is right near the road or summin

 

[awesomeade]

Tim - no there's different ones for each engine.

 

[Tim Sims]

so the one for sale in the classifieds from a 1.8t wont fit my car???

BOOOOO

 

[awesomeade]

Nope, they do a specific one for the diesels

 

[Tim Sims]
