Think I might keep the oem look with a carbonio or go all out for an Evoms or itg maxogen, how well does the Evoms fit? Is it as good as the itg? Which has better power gains/noise etc? I would like the Evoms as it is cheaper even with the heat shield! But I would go either way :)

Hi guys anyone know anything about the revo kits? Just been looking at them and they look really good! I think they look better than the itg due to it being covered properly and not by foam like the itg!? What are your opinions?

Thanks Jay

I've got ITG maxogen on my Edition and can't fault it in anyway. Sounds the buisness and looks quality not forgetting the power gains. :happy2:

Evoms, ITG and Revo all give similar gains within a few bhp.

All give good sound. Personally I have the Evoms intake and it sounds great, but then so do both the others.

The ITG looks like a home made intake and I don't like oiled filters, so the dry filter on the Evoms won out for me.

I've decided to go for an Evoms woo! With the heat shield of course!  :laugh: best place to buy from? And how hard is it to chop up your engine cover as this is what I'm worried about and does the evoms fit the MAF okay?


Thanks Hurdy!

Id stick with the oe intake as you will lose low end torque and power. I fitted one at stage 2+ and then removed it. I found my engine responded better with the oe intake and was a better fast road car. Plus I couldnt really feel the difference when going for it. The difference is so small you are maybe talking barely a fraction of a second in acceleration times. If you are doing track days then an intake is good as you will be using the high revs where the power is with the intakes. Lots of people have made the switch back to oe and found what I did.

Hmm dunno what to do to be fair! Either a carbonio or Evoms, I do want to buy an intake of some sort so I'm not sure wether to go all out for an Evoms and buy a new engine cover off eBay or get a carbonio from awesomegti to keep the car looking OEM?

Other mods I want to do are a milltek catback and maybe a stage 1 revo remap!

Hate having a choice haha

Evoms and Revos look seriously good, I've heard many times the OEM one is more than capable of giving good intake so the improvements may be less noticeable compared to over cars.
I've got a twintake on mine but only being a k03 I've head it wont restrict it at all and it looks the nads!

Couple any of these with a TTS engine cover and it'll look the business  :drool:

If you are just doing stage 1 then an intake is not needed. I wouldn't bother with a Carbonio as they don't add power from what others have reported and dynoed on here. Id use your money into doing other mods like better brakes and suspension. I've spent lots on modifications, fitting catch cans etc and always found the engine ran better with the OE parts fitted.
