yeah, i actually just got a duty tax owed in the mail. i had to fill out some fedex forms online for the shipment, didn't mention anything about duty taxes so i was thinking there wouldn't be any. rats, oh well.
How much do we each owe you to cover that unexpected cost?

not really sure yet until i get the last shipments. but based on what i got so far, i'm thinking its ~.025-.030%; .260s and 11mm pumps are the same price. if people wanted to send me $5 for each they ordered, that would be enough so i'm not losing too much :) but it's not enough i'm going to bug anyone for it, i can absorb it :) so - if you do, mucho appreciated :)

if you have the wherewithal to top up the PayPal send to ~$350 (or more), I think that'd be a nice gesture to thank @burpod for his time and effort in putting this together.
That's one of the other reasons why I wanted to include a little extra in the order for @burpod: there's always some little additional cost that creeps in some way, some how....and as I mentioned previously, the man is doing some serious legwork in putting this together, so it's only decent to send a little extra in the way of thanks.

That is what I hate about import dues. Yes you can go on the website and get an idea of the fees, but if you look at the wrong schedule or group you might be paying .05% or 30%...

going through is site, they are 345 euro with shipping, then add 5% to pay with paypal and exchange rate.. comes to be ~$410

Let me know how much more I owe. Happy to buck up and pay my share once the additional charges are known.

$5 per injector set/pump is enough for me, i don't really want to raise the price - i should have done my homework on the import taxes. but i'm not going to worry about a few $$ here or there anyway. not that i'm independently wealthy but a deal's a deal :)

I’ll send you some over, do you have any of the resistors for the harness? If you do could you put one in my shipment? Thanks

Mine were an even $300 shipped; they’re a little higher now I see. Didn’t realize the .260s were so much more.

.205s are some of the cheapest, probably because they are an OE size i'm guessing

IMO, .260s would be the minimum size to upgrade to. tuned right *cough*, it drives absolutely fantastic. been testing hands-on a 10mm .260 vnt15 car this past week (first time actually in-person with this setup). drives amazing, smoke free except a haze in headlights @ WOT with 21psi boost. idle is clean an smooth. will be taking it to NH and back this weekend and see how mpg is :) in my cars with 11mm .260s i haven't had an issue getting 50+ mpg with normal driving
