Thanks for your interest
Alpinesport have mentioned that the inlet pipe and throttle body mounts *may* be included in the manifold price. Sorry to be vague, they are very enthusiastic about doing this, but at the same time have been hard to pin down.
MSC quoted me USD325 for nose & pulley assy. Snout dimension on this app will be a standard generic MSC dimension, whether this is achieved by purchase or rework of the Ebay snout
MSC quoted USD63 all up for all bypass parts
Bypass mounts on the left of the SC looking at the car from the front. It clears the EGR
Snout support, idlers and drive pulleys looking to be around AUD600
US import costs I have no idea. For me to bring items into Australia as personal imports if the $ value is below AUD1000 there is no duty or tax levied, the US may have something similar. It is not something I have been able to get a clear answer on. Like bureaucrats the world over, if they don't know the answer saying 'you pay' is safest for them!
The old Alpine kit was underpriced - Alpinesport said as much to us, but they used more "interesting" language! The USD/Rand exchange rate ended up killing it.
The exchange rate varies from day to day....the trend has been for the AUD to increase in value against the USD - it has been as low as 50c - currently 80c, so it isn't as cheap for you as it was a few months back
Anything unique to this project we will make available, anything generic we will provide enough detail to enable sourcing.
Hope this helps
Rob
