Hello - yeah, i put some pics up. I\'ll dig \'em out at sopme point.

Following a partial map on thursday/friday, and a trip down to Dorchester on friday, i can confirm that the Dragon V-mount is vry good. 83 degrees water temp, and 25/26 inlet air temp consistently all the way there.

A mate of mine who is also a member on here (LKP) has just had a v-mount made and fitted by spec-R. I think they are planning to sell them off the shelf very soon. It\'s a quality item might be worth giving them a call?

If it\'s the one I\'ve seen on that FD at shows then it is a very nice item!!

If you look at the dragon Vmount there is a space on the drivers side for the filters, I\'ve got a ARC box too and I think it would work well with the dragon kit as it will draw super cold air through the bottom filter pannel (probably be better than the Apexi etc.) if you have decent filters in it.. something like a K&N (actualy if you are looking at putting K&N filters in to it... it\'s the same dimentions as the 2.0 Merc SLK (Pre 2000) but you have to put a small rubber seal around the top of the filter as it\'s slightly thinner!!!

Here\'s a pic of my v-mount, modified for single turbo use. You can see the area on the left that has been left open for air filters.

We can supply original V mount kits from:

Knight Sports, Revolution, HKS, etc. K.S. still make the most complete package, I think - complete with optional carbon cold air fed air box.

The WGT one is actually the same as the dragon one: they\'re both supplied by radtec. I think the supply is solely to Dragon now though.
