its a shame you fitted those SFS hoses along with everything else.  I would have been really interested to see how they performed

In short, they needed a bit of modification to stop the radiator fan from chopping it up when they swell, so they were not very well thought out. I think they went through two revisions.

They are quite large in diameter so they flow well compared to the crappy smashed and kinked OEM pipes.

They are even more modified now to suit the intercoolers.

The Dbilas is proven to flow over 350 bhp so i am not saying it aint acheivable with one filter, im just saying my intake is performing way better than i ever expected, sounds nicer than i expected and gives the car a much more noticabley fully rich power band. I have had the Dbilas back on as i still have my black original pipe, gave the car about 2 days with it on to adapt, the car felt noticably flatter and did not have the same top-end or mid-range tug.

Twin-intake back on, response, character and performance was back.  :fighting:
