Also and IMO, with a turbo car, you'll  not see any real world difference in post turbo intake temperatures  to make it worthwhile.

Not what I have found with my intake..

Do you have pre and post intake IATs logs to support your statement?

....No, but the rest of us might benefit from knowing more factual information. I've no idea which of you is right and it's even more difficult to decide because you are both people whose opinions/contributions I take notice of and tend to believe.

It still might end up as a cold air feed for a normal filter type cai like the evoms or be used to keep brakes cool

Mat ED30

Are you planning on logging your Air Intake Mass with this mod?  It would be interesting to see how your g/s is effected.

Hi Mat,

Sorry to dig up this old thread.....but I saw this ducting kit quite often a few years ago, but not recently.

Can you tell me where you bought the kit?

Do you think this could be used to supply a decent feed to the ITG setup?

....and last if all, do you think the ducting can be fixed securely to both sides? (if heading up to the ITG foam)  :wink:

Thanks  :happy2:


Anyone Else? Please feel free to chime in  :smiley:

Also check out NeilM's build thread:  http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,22082.255.html  < Reply #264. Though Neil's are ducts to the brakes - Very tidy solution for ducting anyway.  :happy2:
