A high-flow intake will make a big difference to the bhp gain on Revo2. Depending on whether K03 or K04 you'll gain 15-20 bhp and probably have to turn down the fuelling one notch. <--- It's all in my Forge Twintake review thread.

No I'm not running an intake just a K&N panel filter, I didn't want to modify the engine cover and the Inlet I heard in car EVOMs or ITG I think was quite noisy and I didn't like the noise (it was not attractive induction roar, which I like)

I have no real need for extra power at two figure speeds and front wheel drive. I am looking forward to seeing what it delivers at JKM last time on the same settings with a twintercooler which for whatever reason didn't work at all well the car made 300 hp but wouldn't pull over 6k. So with the cooler off it must be over 300 and pulls very cleanly

Nice one Chris, the ITG will compete nicely with the exhaust for tunes.

Me being rather conservative I went for the quiet Dbilas intake and Milltek non res.
Stealth rather than Shouty for me, as much as a Candy white ed30 can be really..

yeah I would have preferred stealth too, but for some reason I've ended up with a TBE with 200CEL cat and now an ITG... so it appears I've gone entirely the opposite direction... fingers crossed the end resul will be what I am after thoguh... i.e. the torque I've not really found yet

....For once I managed to understand one of your posts (can't you write in a form of English which everyone can understand?). But it shows you don't have that much understanding of the differences between Stage2 and Stage2+. There's more to it than just a small amount of extra cost.

I went stage 2 revo with piper cross panel filter and made 320bhp. I was very happy but was told to choose the pipercross over the k&n because the k&n apparently contaminates the maf sensor. That just what AMD told me anyway.
