After doing many logs on my forge twintake and taking the time to strip the filters down and realise there terrible I ordered these bad boys and made a hybrid as the flow rate was nowhere near for stage 2+
Extremely happy and the noise is epic, my friend owns the company so got them cheap too!!


How does it sound and has it made much difference... We need a video man!!! :party: :party: :party:
If it's not broke, Mod it.....

I'll get a video soon dude, I went for a little drive in here last night and got pulled over for my front plate but just a slap on the hand. Did some logging and the flow has gone up by 55% compared to the forge filters, however they are bigger socks and 3 mm bigger diameter. Just in my hand though the design quality of the itg is so much better than the k and n type forge filters. Wanted to try as the itg cai for the tfsi is proved to be great in figures and flow, Well see when the mapping comes of how well it does. There's no flat spot compared to the forge filters though and the chatter on full throttle is insane. Very happy looks great too :)

Spent a little under two hours removing about 10 years worth of tar from the paintwork. And has highlighted just how many paint chips/blemishes are crying out for attention.

How are you supporting the filter end of that intake as the forge cannisters  provide support the intake at the filter end.
Without traction power is nothing!

Hey guys yeah it's pretty cool fabricating a hybrid. The underside of the intake I have fabricated some brackets welded to the pipe work one secures to where the standard itg intake bolts on the right hand side of the engine and the other bolts to just under the pipe work near the battery.
