they don't make a difference on a diesel except making your wallet lighter :happy2:

Exactly.
my old TDI had over 220bhp on stock intake. Not necessary. Just damage your turbo.

Haha looks as if it will fit right?

Wouldn't want to sacrifice power over looks but can't see how it could possibly

Anyone else????

Ah sorry I didn't read the original post.

On a GTI buy a Revo, ITG, Evoms or Forge Twintake.

That one would not be very good at all I imagine.

it will fit with modding but the difference is where the air goes in its only a small gap where as on a petrol you need more air in the engine
