I tried to get a quote for this product from BLITZ USA about 3 weeks ago, no response still lol.
Best way to get it would be a roundabout method, using a retailer to get it directly from japan and ship it here.
Blitz USA just keeps saying we are "testing"

From everything I'm reading, messing with the air intake makes so little (if any) additional power that it's not worth the effort or money. Besides, unless you're going to get a pro-tune (or some other custom tune), you're probably no getting all you can and by then, you're looking at even more $$ spent for not a lot of power. Just my US$.02.

paikman's right, its not out yet and best thing to do is goto a retailer and have them get it direct from japan.

gil is also right, if you get an intake like that, you will most definitely have to get a protune to get the max benifit out of the intake system.

i thnk blitz has a couple of options available for our grb's now. the other one i saw from blitz is a replacement of even our ran air duct which comes in cf from blitz and a flat panel filter element instead of the cone. fwiw, i was quoted 350-400 for that system.
