I originally bought a 996RS airbox with the 'bulge' but; it was still smaller than the EVR and to fit it required not only removing the coolant tank and ignition switch/steering lock but also cutting off the frame support that holds the ignition switch/lock to the bike, plus junking the oil breather box and fitting the underseat breather, fitting larger air intakes, larger TBs, a new fuel tank plus the corsa header tank - which won't fit if you have a temp gauge etc - it would get very costly, very quickly so I ebayed the airbox and bought the EVR, which worked out cheaper in the long run...
