Intake porn..
« on: May 02, 2009, 12:15:43 am »
Just got back from a trip, couldn't resist taking a look at some goodies that have arrived whilst I have been away.. And obviously got some pics!!





And pre assembled (obviously without the MAF housing/turbo bend at the mo)



Im having the whole engine bay shrouded in carbon, apart from looking amazing, it will be very effective at keeping the heat out of the intake, and also super light too..

Should be on tomorrow..  :laugh:

Is that custom for you? As I've never seen that before!

ITG? The gridded filter is typical.

Or possibly from someone possibly closer to 'home' :wink: :wink:

Heres a couple more pics.. Lots of work to get it in there, its pretty big that filter!!

Anyways still got to do all of the intake heat shields, all of which will be carbon with high temp matting on the underside to prevent heatsoak..

Pretty pleased with how it looks!! Goes well too!!

Looking good dude, what's happening with your old intake?

If you have to ask why, you'll never understand.

have you got a seperate air feed to that filter from the arch??

Cos the it doesn't look like it'll get any air from the standard feed in the front grill!!!

looks bloody massive tho, no wonder its good for 650bhp lol.

so how much would that cost to the general public???

Yep, have an air feed from the fog grill, and there is plenty of air under the bonnet lol..

Its completely custom, and wont be sold on I dont think, unless someone copys it then sells it that is.. Cost about £500 in parts

....The GruppeM intake for the GTI is about £700 IIRC.
