Amazing work!
Do these kits ship from the UK, if so, are there any additional expenses?

The ESS one is the same, I had it on mine. The filter does get dirty quickly but there doesnt really seem to be any space left for it to go under the bonnet ! Just have to clean it more often.

I like how the manifold sit low and has a less noticeable profile than the ESS unit.

Great looking kit! My only complaint would be the filter element used. ESS uses the same location for their filter element, and I don't mind that, but switch to a black filter without any chrome and it will look a little more discreet and wouldn't stick out so much. Otherwise, i'd say it is one of the best looking supercharger kits out there.

At the moment they are shipping from the UK. We will be holding stock in the US also once we get a chance to build out stock levels up.

That price is all in for US customers - including shipping and any customs on your side.

VAT only applies for customers in the EU.

Are there going to be stages like with other companies?
Manifold looks great. How much power is estimated for this unit?

Customer can choose boost level but the price is the same as we are not currently offering a non intercooled kit.
