Which air intake?

[E30Dom]

EVOMS for a bit of cha cha cha.

LMAO 

[gobbleplease]

MC 71, just wondering did you get rid of the ITG because you didn't like the noise style or because it was to loud ?
It's just when you said you preferred the evoms its just when I heard an evoms I thought it was louder than the ITG !

Yeah recently upgraded to Pipercross panel. Only going to Stage 1.5 I think, pre cat and map. So might just keep stock set-up.

For me the reason for getting rid of the ITG Maxogen was loudness (and that alone) and not the noise style. Out of the 2 I honestly preferred the sound of the ITG but (personally) I thought the EVOMS was a wee bit less invasive in the cabin, noise wise. No direct comparison as I didn't run one straight after the other. I'm just a bit fussy so will probably get the APR/VWR CAI with its cannister and see what that's like re loudness and cabin noise.

Thanks for the tips mate ill be hoping to chase 380hp so will see if the stock filter would flow or maybe just make my own intake

[Jabarton99]

Where are you located, if your close buy ill let you have a listen to my ITG

[Saintsteve]

I've heard an Evoms on a Revo stage 2 ed30 , and my Forge Twintake on my stage 2 Ed30, and noise in the cabin is roughly the same.

There is no such thing as a quiet induction Kit 

If you want quiet, then stick a panel filter in your oem housing or a Carbonio which won't give you any notable bhp but might increase your throttle/torque response ever so slightly.

My Volant closed IK has the best of both worlds, quite subtle whilst driving normally, but includes all the usual induction noises when you get on it; I'm very happy with it.... only prob. is that it costs a bit getting it from the US.

What I liked about it was the OEM look to it:

It takes the air feed from the usual place and from behind the headlight similar to the twintake in that fashion.

[GNJ_Motorsport]

Its only a great seller due to price....  If the evoms were 190 quid, then everyone would have one.

Although I see where you are coming from, the Neuspeed is far from a poor bit of kit and well up to the job, especially for what I suppose you could class as light tuning (stage 1/2/3 on a K03 GTI.)

I had one on my K03 GTI and it was great 

I used an ITG on my stage 3 K04 S3 as I thought the bigger bore prior to the MAF was warranted on that.

This is epic I really want one of these but don't know about how to order? Us ebay? Surely even with import tax wouldn't cost as much as a twintake?

Pretty sure that picture is of my old ED30 fitted with the Volant "Powercore" Intake, I bought it from a parts dealer in USA (WCP Diesel) and had it shipped to a mate in (Texas) USA (Shipped free from dealer to my mate)  who forwarded it to me (Cost around £40 in shipping from memory), I bought it because no one else had one and I liked the look of it, I did not like the look of the ITG (Blue Peter toilet roll and grannies clunge sponge) and the Twintake was a bit bling for me!, I think Scotty may have bought it from me in January?.

I did a sort of review, link below, with shipping and VAT (if your unlucky enough to pay it), I doubt you will pay more than £210 for one, think it cost me £198 shipped (plus K04 Take off pipe £23), fitting around 30 mins.

It is yours mate, my engine bay is dirty in comparison, so stole your pic  

It works out a lot more expensive when you have to pay taxes, think mine came to ~£250... which was more than I wanted to pay tbh... but at least it's different and as said, I like the OEM look.

[Simon_2.0t]

I really like the look of the above set up, any chance of a video?

Any links to where can buy?

Si

[Scottymon]

It's much quieter than an open air, infact when driven normally you'd barely notice it:

Volant Powercore

Compared to a Neuspeed P-Flo:

Neither video is mine. 
IF you want the noise all the time, then go for an open cone, otherwise a closed system will suit you better.

Has anyone had any ex with the Pipercross filter that connects to the original engine cover?
