I can't stand that @"~$*%R£ dbilas any more
What's up with the dbilas intake?
Well, it's made out of wrought iron or something, it's so heavy - and it gets very hot, being made out of that same material - and the air filter box is
super heavy and I'm worried it'll damage the plastic mounting points on the car - and the bolt that holds the tube to the engine has sheered away twice because of the weight - and the filter is too damn small in terms of surface area - and it makes a damn stupid haWEEEEEEE noise whenever I open the car up a bit. Sounds like a badly-tuned harmonica. The haWEEEE noise is the worst bit.
The APR stage 2 intake looked very nice but I've heard nothing on UK availability for a few months now and I'm tired of waiting. ITG has had universally good comments from everyone who's purchased it. If possible I'd like it with blue hose to match my car but even black hose looks quite smart with the white inserts. Plus I like that's it's attached at two points, on the heatshield and on the engine; I was concerned about heat transfer from the heatshield/tube interface but that doesn't seem to a problem, and whatever the case, it's gotta be better than the setup I've got at the moment.
