Hi Tom



I live in British Columbia, Canada and my postal code is V7R4G6.

Please let me know price and eta of delivery as well as payment instructions\options.



Thanks,

Rod

 

everyone is just now finding out that what the guy from k&n told me a week or so ago is true. k&n has JUST finished deign on the intakes, he said the company doing production has not even completed retooling yet. it's weeks and weeks from being completed.

 

What in the heeeell. I just want my f'n intake!

 

give up and go with the airbox mod lol...

 

Screw that just turbo your car with a LEAF BLOWER lol.

 

This doesn't say anything about when its being released. I ordered from Gravana who is recieving the first shipment. So we'll see who is right. They have eta ship date of the 9/5.

 

Oh and if it won't be available for weeks and weeks, then how do you explain this:
http://www.optionsauto.com/prodinfo....r=KN-69-4516TS

 

i'll explain by saying that it's not finished with production yet. go ahead and pay the company for it and see how fast they tell you it's on backorder or some bullshit lol... they shouldn't be advertising if they don't have it, but unfortunately some companies do.

i'm sure the dude at k&n i talked to knows more about what process their products are in

besides that not even the right intake. it's just a stock picture

 

explain what?? a stock K&N picture with a price?

 

Ditto, as I too have ordered from Gravana and I would say they have a great reputation, so why would the say something they don't know? Just to hold on to people's money. I don't believe so.

 

I hate to say I told you so. My company buys big-time from K&N (we're in LA) and I had my purchasing manager call them to get the intake (at cost of course). They said its weeks away from being available. I think Gravana is just looking to get orders.

 

yeah i really don't know why they think a k&n employee would lie to me about the product coming out at a later date.. it makes no sense.

 

Hey you're probably right. I just want my friggin intake lol

Hey has anyone here heard of the Weapon R intake for the RL. Over at redlineforums there are people showing dynos of a 20hp increase with just the weapon R intake. Would that thing fit our cars?

 

it will not. the intakes are not even a small bit to being similar

 

Thats not correct.
The guys in customer service at K&N are way behind in the product updates.

 

So i guess i can throw my two cents in now.....My Good friend works for a automotive wholesaler in ontario that sells the most K/N in the province...Anyways he called and they told him 2 or 3 weeks......So i guess its just a waiting game now....!! Anxiously waiting!!!
