What is noisiest? Help please?
« on: February 11, 2011, 09:51:22 pm »
Ok folks, i have been reading through reviews, comparisons, you tube vids etc with no definitave answer.
So please help if anyone knows, i am wanting to buy either a itg maxogen or twintake, what i want is a noiser intake with the whooshing/fluttering sound of the air recirculating when lifting off the accelerator, performance is not the first thing i am after but is part of the reason i want a new intake. Also i want to modify the stock engine cover, is either of the two intakes better for refitting the cover after i have modded it? Thanks for the help

The itg would be louder being an 'open' filter. The twintake filters are enclosed in a tubular covers

I have the BDM which is essentially the ITG maxogen. (but better  :innocent:  :grin: )

It'll do all of the noise stuff you like too. Chatters like a monster when you want it too, and a nice loud turbo spooling noise.

Added bonus was 5bhp and 33 lbft torque!  :driver:

I had an ITG and its pretty loud, as is the evoms.  After hearing robins twintake at the JKM RR day i was really shocked at how quite it was in comparison.

Not a bad thing as it performs just as well, but if your after proper intake noise you need an open filter IMO. The ITG/BDM and evoms master.

However ask jabbasport about their new intake, its massive, open filter using the twintake pipe work.  Would be keen to see the gains on it andf from what i gather it sounds biblical

I had a BSH true seal on for 5 miles before I took it off. Too much noise for me, by that I mean the whoosh pshhh noise, I never got the goose noise associated with these intakes. To me it sounded like a jet engine  :scared:

I did some maf logs and it made a healthy increase over standard so I suppose I could save it for dyno days.

I suppose I will admit I may have been wrong  :surprised:
It also gave an increase in boost @ top end over stock box, but I ain't using it for every day driving :sick:

what G/S did you gain?

For what its worth your not the first person to complain about the BSH noise.  If your after quite as i said earlier the twintake (one of the highest performing intakes) is also really quiet when compared to the ITG/EVOMS/BSH and neuspeed inates which i have heard.  It also sounds alot classier because its enclosed.
