Yeah they look good and apparently the build is good quality and doesn't change the sound much. Also notice the below on Ebay which allows you to pick a color and then purchase your separate Air Filter

if I could fit any sort of cone filter such as below as long as the diameter was right which says 89mm

Just a heads up for anyone looking for a bargain.

I made a best offer on this £165 kit of £150 which was accepted and then also use an Ebay code for £15 off that was on the advert so got the kit for £135 in the end

Nice one, don't suppose you got a vid of the noise it makes, like you I am hoping for a bit of noise but don't want it sounding like a 747 coming down the road when I am only doing a steady 30 

Next will be removing the Pre-cat so hopefully that will help with more noise

Not sure how it will add to performance if any as I am Stage 1 at the moment

They're quiet when cruising but get quite loud when accelerating. Can hear the turbo spool quite loudly, then dump when you lift off. If you tap the accelerator straight after lifting off it will make a nice flutter noise too...

I've ordered mine and is saying it's despatched, can't wait to get it fitted, was it an easy fit?

[Simo]

Instructions are garbage. There was no mention of how to fit the heat shield at the back of the engine. One picture it isn't there, next picture it's there! Easy enough to figure out though once you have a look.

Did you just order it and if so get the discount?

I have a forge twintake for sale if you want noise too

Your Forge looks nice but bit too expensive for what I wanted to pay

Were there any other fitting issues as watched the video on ebay and seems straight forward

Also I have an MOT coming up in a week or so. Will this Intake be fine on there?
