Look at the BDM intake.

It's like the ITG but bigger filter. Sounds insane!

Turbo chatter is very loud if u want it to be  :happy2:

Well, I like my evoms  :evilgrin: am interested in putting on an ITG and doing some back to back logging though (so they can be compared-same environmental variables). If I did not already have a CAI I would be drawn to the ITG..

This is intresting reading, after doing a quick search I have to say I think I prefer the look of the ITG.[

Yes, I do agree. I am a particularly fastidious person and the fitment and logos on the hoses look spot on.

Does anyone know how much modification is required to the engine cover to get this to fit with the ITG intake?

I second that, and would think you may have just made my decision much easier  :happy2: Thanks Keano

Silly question, but there is no potential problems with water being sucked into the intake?  I also notice you have not fitted the heat shields, - any reason for this?

Its a Backdraft intake mate, these are not supplied with a heatshield like the ITG. Not much difference between them other than that though.

Looks very tidy btw Keano, top job!  :happy2:

Right here is a video of the sound of the itg. Just so everone knows the car is up on axel stands with the bottom dog bone mount off. my engine does not move that much usually  :signLOL: mid way through fitting new anti roll bar bushes to shouldnt really have started her up but thought id try to let you see how it sounds and also worth pointing out that under load it is alot louder and more aggressive sounding  :happy2:

Oh and im aware its upside down haha
