Default Best place for HKS induction and SQV

i'm after a HKS SQV blow off valve and induction kit for a 1993 WRX import, where would be the best(cheapest) place to get one from? At the moment i have found an australian supplier who will do them for about 250 + shipping, but i have seen you often have group purchases and wondered if anybody knew of a cheap source?
cheers

Sorry, I tagged along on somewone else's SSQV group buy and your own Pedal Group buy as you know so that only left the Blitz. Simon did such a good price that a group buy wouldn't have brought it down any further

Personally wouldn't touch HKS induction kits - my mate has one, and it doesn't seem to filter too well (gone through 2 MAF's in 6 months), and the induction tract was covered in black "sh!te"

What sort of induction kit would you reccomend, always thought HKS wer meant to be amazing(judging by extortionate price at least!), but am pretty uneducated on these things,
any advice very much appreciated.
cheers

K&N Seem to be about the safest - I think apexi filter well, (so well that you can run into problems without a remap - i.e. lean running).

Most people seem to stick with a panel filter unless aiming above 350bhp (sti panel filter comes out tops).

I personally have the Power engineering K&N filter with the plastic insert (think its called a power filter).

Blitz ind. kit (the stainless SUS one) is supposedly REALLY crap at filtering - on a race car it is not too bad, as the engine would be rebuilt after not many miles.
