Fantastic idea! Dont suppose you know where I can buy one? Might have some trouble with customs.

I could do with buying an inlet plenum but would I need to declare it on the way back as it would look a bit strange in the bag xray.

I think you will find that stuff like that for your own use is ok, you will just have to watch that you dont go over the permitted baggage weight or they will stuff you with an excess.
