Best sounding intake
AJP:
I will just add though, the Ramair sounds glorious with enough boost!
DaveMsport:
Ram-air hands down. There was one already fitted to mine and was worried my other half wouldn't be keen on the whooshes and hisses as its her everyday car but she loves it.
My other car is an E46 M3 with CSL airbox and supersprint exhaust so get the best of both worlds between not many other NA cars sounding better than the M3 and then all the hisses and pops form the GTI for the boost side of things :)
Jgavin1:
I’ve got a Revo intake on my edition 30 and with it running APR stage 2+ it sounds amazing. Even the guy at APR thought the revo intakes are the best
absolute:
I have a standard airbox on mine, and I have been tempted to upgrade.
Having the MK7 calipers on the front fitted soon, I was hoping for Stage 2.
Do I need an Air filter for Stage2?

Different tuners have different definitions of hardware requirements. Check with your tuner.
Generally not having an intake will hurt top end figures, but it is unlikely to be a necessity - much like many other modifications such as intercoolers etc.
Generally on the TFSI platform, most tuners refer to Stage 2 as being a de-cat or sports cat as the minimum hardware wise
