£2300 for the complete kit direct from Webcon. This was the price 6 months or so ago so doubt it's changed too much since then.

You won't regret fitting ITB's, they sound amazing! And as people have said, go straight to vocky to fit them... Unless you're fitting yourself :)

Yep ITBs are expensive and I can't see it costing any less then 3k if you want any sort of power. But Vocky is a God.

Is this the person you was talking about at the curry?

Strange meeting :D

Cheers for the help guys, so the best thing is to order from webcon and then have a word with Vocky about fitting them. My bro who is a honda man (hope it's nt a swear word on here) recons i should order ITB's straight from the States. Im not sure, all i want is that sound !!!!! cheers all

I've never noticed that Z22's on TB's sound 'all that' unless youve spent a fcuking fortune on lots of other things.... Whereas old faithful XE's sound mental in totally standard guise with TB's fitted.
