SFS Performance - Turbo Hose kit for 2.0T FSI (200ps)
chungster:
TD...have you just caught RR with his pants down?? :signLOL:
re: vRSy....I'd beg to differ on the discharge pipe making the most diff. I reckon its the IC>TB pipe actually...u can see how restrictive a flow the OEM pipe is compared to SFS's version.
But you need to be aware my gains were done with both pipes replaced, not just one.
I still have the SFS Turbo > IC pipe on the car along with OEM IC>TB pipe. But not been on any RR tho to see if that discharge pipe alone has made a diff compared to running OEM on both pipes previously. Could do it but i can't be bothered!! :laugh:

I stand corrected :grin: and already said as much before your post, tony_d et al.
It's very easy to put a spin on things to suit a view and we all know how my enthusiasm and support for some companies, which I'm entitled to have, can put some people's backs up. But I'm not saying that SFS are rubbish and Neuspeed's or someone else's more expensive solution is better, am I.
Think of it another way, my much earlier criticism (since found to be mistaken) has served to highlight the SFS solution's strengths for all and sundry to read.
Can we now stop Robin-bashing for today.

I'm sure the theory on removing the metal sections is flow dynamics. The fewer obstructions, joints, changes in bore size, the smoother and more efficient the flow. I can see why this SFS solution works and why it gives better results than the competition. You get faster spool with your pipes, the SFS ones likewise, in addition increasing power and torque because they have less loss over the length.
It's also worth noting that the MKV uses the same crap design of couplings the MKIV had, which blow past the O-rings - removing as many of these as possible can only be a good move.

....Damn you, Mike! Now you've explained the benefits I'm regretting my ineffective Neuspeed solution. However, throwing more money at this particular mod simply isn't worth my while. We all make mistakes.

it would be if you factor in the money you would get back when selling the neuspeed discharge pipe and IC/TB pipe.
Ive seen second hand sets go for more than £250 for the two(which is still cheap in comparison to the new price of them)

....Very good point, Sy. I suppose I'd have to use the dreaded eBay as no-one here will want them in preference to the SFS.
Someone was actually looking for some in the Wanted area IIRC.
Hmm.. That front mounted intercooler might come earlier than anticipated.
