also, the intake comes with a k&n filter cleaner kit, a tiny M's intake sticker, a K&n filter sticker, an allan key and a small sheet of stickable foam incase the intake is rubing/touching anywhere

You can e-mail Gruppe M directly. I contacted them a while back and they replied relatively quickly. They e-mailed me an order form and they quoted me a price around $750.

I'm planning to do a before and after dyno for the J's racing exhaust - hopefully it shows that a single outlet exhaust can provide power gains
750 is quite a good price.. slightly cheaper than what i paid

That's the intake with Maxim Works exhaust manifold and euroR cat which do give it a slightly different sound to stock I'd imagine.
I'll be sure to do a comparison sound clip when i get the J's racing exhaust on

ProjectT4, these are the latest pics of my car from the Brisbane Euro Cruise. 10 cars in total - was a great day. btw, good to see a CG 06 with some mods
Incidently does anyone know where i can relocate the grounding for the battery? The gruppeM heat shield is pressing against it slightly - too close for comfort for me
p.s. my current exhaust mod... no tips haha i recon it looks better stock< all (

You guys interested in GruppeM? I can get you all the best deal possible, I know one of their dealer and can get rock-bottom prices. I think bound to be better than all internet prices.

yep the filter and carbon shield are 100% seperable. In the picutres you can see two clamps. The larger one attached to the CF shield is designed to hold the filter in place
the other is to hold the intake tube adaptor in place. Replacement filters are about 150 Au Dollars, which is similar to a regular K&N filter. Not bad for a filter with a design unique to GruppeM

rims are speedy lite 7's
I might put up some more recent picks of the wheels soon... I've added buddyclub forged racing lug nuts in gunmetal, removed the center caps and replaced the good years with advan sport tyres
