Forge Twintake or vw racing intake get good results and don't sound too loud. Not cheap mind.

If you're wanting value for money then the Ram Air Oversized intake is best. If you're wanting best intake in terms of performance then go for either the Evoms or Revo. Personally I think the Revo one looks best and it sounds good.

Most tuners these days are not recommending the Forge Twintake. They may not be poor but there is better available.
As already said, Evoms for a long time were the go-to option, then Revo become the preferred choice of many.

Gone but not forgotten :-)

Most of the open foam filters sound terrible imo. Like darth Vader under your bonnet. After a while the noise gets on your nerves. I had it on a DSG, not sure if that makes any difference but hated it. That's why I went from a ram air oversized to the Twintake. Plus the Twintake feeds directly from the front grill and side arch area.

Twintake sounds subtle and looks awesome with the carbon tubes.

EVOMS or REVO. End of.

Stay away from canister CAIs as they are sh*t for the all important flow plus trap all sorts of detritus making the already sh*t flow worse.

There is a great Mod section (top of the page inbetween Shop and Trending) on the forum with a really good Modification Catalouge in it, have a look there for inspiration.

Where's your evidence to back up that rather bold statement?

When was the last time you saw an F1 engine, or a supercar engine with a bit of pipe hanging off it with a plant pot shaped filter on the end? 

Revo must be laughing all the way to the bank.   £300 for a bit of a pipe with a cheap bit of foam on the end of it  :grin:
