The shiney one on the website is made by AVO www.avoturbo.com , as is their exhausts from what I understand. I rang AVO a while ago looking at goodies and they referred me to the MX5 factory as a retailer.

It's not the same one from the website, it is really a Twister intake from the states.

This is what my CAI from the MX Factory looks like.

i had one of their cai's installed a few months ago, it's not the same one as pictured on their website. it's one of those \"green \" ones from the looks of it. anyway, it's really great. the car goes a lot harder now, and it sounds fantastic. i'm very happy with it.

Do people actually hack a hole in the firewall or is it already there but hidden behind the water bottle?

Here is my cf air pod. all i need is to remove the water bottle, cut the 3 inch hole and add on the piping.

Think i might get one of those track dog racing heat shields in time too.
