....Possibly because the ITG has an open filter?

....Isn't the purpose of the foam to restrict heat from the engine bay reaching the filter?

Also I didn't think that ITG's foam bits were anywhere near the engine cover  :confused:

According to andy @ ITG the ITG sounds the loudest and is most vocal on the seat leon in comparison to the other vag applications

Funny how a Twintake thread turns into an ITG discussion and an ITG thread turns into a Twintake discussion.

Thanks, TC - Nice Services :jumpmove:

@Newey - Yes, I'll do a review but it will need others to add their thoughts and findings in the thread too.

:happy2:
