Installed the intake yesterday and also put the oem seal rubber on , added some carbon folie on the oem half intake,very happy with the new carbon intake ,no problems for installing and car runs flawless..

 

Looks like jewelry! What MAF you running?

 

Looks amazing thanks for sharing! Did you notice an improvement in throttle response?

 

Oem maf. Maybe it's hard to believe, but I always had 1 bar boost and now I see somethimes 1.1 bar,so it certainly isn't a bad upgrade..

 

That does look very good

 

Do keep us posted...

 

I'm curious if the car sounds any different now. Do you feel any seat of the pants change in power. How hard was the install. Thanks Todd

 

Install is the same like oem intake but you have to be more carefull not to damage the carbon.Don't think sound is different,but I have a loud exhaust,europipe exhaust but the one they only build a few copy's of.
I believe the car runs a bit better at mid and high rpm's but I will try some 60-130 miles runs to see if a gained some time...

 

viprklr,

I have the same intake and you do hear the air being sucked into the motor more, with this intake is installed.

 

Dixie,

Nice job on the other 1/2 of the air box.

 

Have you run 60-130 before? What was it? What are your Mods?

 

Not so many mods,K16/24 ,EPL tune but on my request max 1 bar boost,5bar fpr,gt2 intercoolers,sachs clutch with LWFW, 60-130 was 9.0 seconds with 2 shifts.

 

Cool, thanks. I think you can run more boost, depending our your fuel. A lot of us here are running 1.2-1.3 on 93 pump. Good Luck on improving your time!!! I try all the time now...

 

I used to run 1.2 bar with very bad Upsolute flash and had a melted exhaust valve,1 rod was bend,1 damaged piston and cylinder,damaged oil pump,repair costed me 13000 euro so I got a little scared for running high boost.

 

You're in good hands now with EPL. He won't give you something that will hurt you.
