I would say that you could order this as one job lot off one of the board sponsors like Giampiero... problem is you'll be hammered by customs when it gets here from the 'states

Much respect for the Mugen CAI, that baby will set you back the thick end of a grand though and you have to cut a hole in your bonnet - I guess you are not worried about going back to stock (or insurance surcharges)??

I would try a post on the main talk forum and see what feedback you get.. I believe that the nearest European Mugen dealer is in Switzerland but I think Brian knows more than I on that.

If this all comes off you must come along to a meet, I for one would drool over the CAI!

There is a thread knocking about on the Red badges, I think I'll be getting a set of Red S2000 ones as an experiment so watch this space!

I know customs can be a right pain in the arse! But if I get my mate to send it from Japan and label the package as a gift, I might get away with it! I

I too am thinking about the Mugen CAI. It does involve cutting a hole in your bonnet (just on the inside to allow clearance). Other CAI options include the Import Developments CAI and Spoon, both that fit onto the stock unit. I have the HKS Racing Suction intake which takes air from around the side of the radiator. I'm thinking of upgrading to the Mugen as I also have the Mugen exhaust manifold and some other bits.
Had my car dyno'd yesterday. Unfortunately they couldn't get a reading as the wheels started spinning at 105 mph (reading 205 bhp at rear wheels at time). Am hoping to find someone to do this for me again soon!
I have pdf files of air intake system but cannot figure out how to add them to this note. I will gladly send you a PM if you want to see.
