Carbon fiber Type 4 air filter????

I've seen this once or twice already, cant seem to find any decent pix online, but I've seen them in mags and stuff.

Its a separate part from the fan shroud, it seems as if its 2 intake ports, going to one K&N panel filter, then splitting off again, going to a dual carb setup....

have you guys seen this before??

it looks hot, where and how much??

I know the ones you mean.

Demon tweeks in the uk sell them, they are a universal carbon air box with K&N pancake element in them. Two intakes, one on each front corner, trumpet shaped ends (to smooth the airflow in).

They are made by K&N.
