Other than a few minor details, SS & Monster airboxes are the same.

I've got split single FCR41s on my Monster meaning I can't use the airbox due to the angle/setup but, if it were possible I'd have kept it as I'm sure it works better that way.

As for pricing, it looks like you can't get much of a deal from the EU with them being pretty much the same price (plus Brexit tax). USA probably cheaper but unless you smuggle them the import charges probably make them as expensive - I got mine from Power Barn (USA) but it was back when £1 was almost $2.

Have you considered the 'replica' FCRs? IIRC Buzzer has used them on his bike builds and rates them and they are considerably cheaper than the Keihin.
