Yea, if I could only get one into the US !

As far as "air filters", some aftermarket installations don't leave 
much room for filters so they are left off (not a good idea for 
street driving) or very small ones are used.  They are not the 
contraptions that have been on cars since the 70s' that have tubes, 
sensors, etc. sticking out of them.  There's a pic of my engine in 
the "photos" section.  I use a small K&N filter.
