ACT Carbon Fibre air-box, been thinking of buying one of these to replace the orginal TVR standard air-box on my car.
Would anyone else be interested in a group or bulk buy if a discount can be arranged with ACT ???????????

Yes there are benefits, the original TVR airbox is so poorly designed that it had to be shoe horned into a too small a space in the engine bay. Therefore the two halves of the airbox do not seal properly resulting in unfiltered air and pooh entering the engine.
Oh and yes it does look goooooooood.

Ok I will give ACT a ring within the next couple of days.
I’m guessing here but I think we will be looking at least 15-20 unit before ACT will entertain any form of discount, so I will keep you all posted.
For anyone not familiar with this product please use link below.

What would be the advantage of the added internal trumpets? Would they improve things even more?
