Ahh crap, I started another intake thread. I'm aware of the intake pros/cons and what to expect, just wanted to see if anyone has experience with this specific one in terms of fitment, filter quality, etc.
In any case, regarding the Vanos and Disa, I assume you guys are talking about the Besian Systems and German Auto solutions disa fixes? Those should be done this winter asap.

Yup, Besian and GAS work great.

An update for anyone interested in the Cosmo Racing intake... I ended up buying it and it was around $220 shipped to Chicago. The heatshield was a great fit and I really like the coverage. The oem duct fits in perfectly and everything lines up as it should. The sound is great and I imagine comparable to most similar intakes out there.
I didn't want an oiled filter so I ended up purchasing an AFE dry filter (takeda TF-9027D) for $55 shipped. This made me happy but I didn't like the position of the filter, so I got a 45 degree silicone hose 3.5" and cut it down to size. This pushed the filter to where I wanted it and now I'm very happy with everything.
Total cost was around $285 and while this is very close to the cheaper AFE intake, I think the Cosmo heatshield has more coverage so possibly cooler air around the filter. This is probably very unimportant, but my preference is the Cosmo heatshield based on photos I've seen of Afe, K&N, etc.

Nice intake man... I was about to order that intake but went with the injen one that comes with dry filter. It sounds and looks great.
