I've only had the VX inlet but they are a very worth while mod, they make them drive like a 16v a lot more power top end.

If you need one or want any advice feel free to contact me.
I have changed the design over the batches to make them easier to fit. People where having issues with them sitting close to the bulk head, air leak from the TB flange. I have resolved all these issues now and touch wood only had positive feedback since.

I had a modified inlet manifold on my x14xe some boy off here had made (not Beardy). It made 103 bhp with the inlet manifold, piercross viper induction kit and dodgy sports backbox.

I had purchased one of these last year.
Delivery time was terrible. Quality of the finished item was poor. I had to take it to a local engineering shop to get the throttle body mounting surface skimmed as it had warped when they welded it.
I was promised a refund on the skim and never received it. Despite me sending receipts which Beardy said he never received.
I had read good things about this guy. I will never buy anything from him in the future.
Id go for the more expensive VX version

Bought Lexmaul and was fitted in 15 mins.
Got a new engine, and sold it for exactly what I paid.
No air leaks no t pieces and straight fit.
Have never tried one of beardy's though
