Hi guys!

What do you think about this Airbox suction sytem?
Optically and handcrafted it looks very good to me.
In the description they write that this system will increase torque and horsepower because of the more of cold/ fresh air.
I know it wont be a lot more, but I'm lookin since a long time for an good and nice looking system.

I have something similar that cost 1/4 of the price. There is little to no HP gain from this mod, consider that before shelling out $2000.

Buy a BMC filter for $165 and leave it alone.. invest in a good tune, better turbos, or ICs.. unless you like pretty carbon fiber that does absolutely nothing for power gains over a filter upgrade...

Pretty shiny and smooth on the outside, rough and irregular where the air flows. It's an "airbox" right? So why treat the air so poorly?
