[cuprak1]

BSH trueseal induction kit - £150 cant go wrong!

works fine on mine and logs show its pulling enough air fine. standard maf location etc all good

cuprak1- i could still chop the engine cover and fit this?
is it as noisy as the evoms?
thanks for the link..... niiiiice car too

The noise is great , here it on the video of my dyno run on page 5.

And yes you can fit stock cover after some butchering

What do your LTFT's (Long Term Fuel Trims) look like with the BSH?

Do those metal intakes (like that HKS jobbie) not increase intake temperatures and ultimately reduce performance?

Just thought that putting a metal pipe on a red-hot engine is counter productive   or is it negligible ?

You can heat wrap anything.

Now, I have no hard evidence to say whether it works or not, it's just based on a theory - what I can tell you is I can kick hell out of the car on a 20 minute track session and the intake is still cold to the touch.

In terms of CAI benefit. I've had mine off and on twice and there's a noticable difference on the top end, I don't know if it adds BHP/torque, but it certainly allows the car to breathe better at the higher RPMs.

Note: custom made EVOMS bend/heat shield/airbox with hybrid 'S' wrapped in Mylar. Out of shot is a 50mm duct from fog grille to airbox.

Ha - Quality !

Add a little MacLaren F1 (ish) to your Gti !

I can't claim to have invented it, Jonny C sorted it out for me.

Not looked  need to "obtain" vcds for a few more hours

^ Let us know if you find out.  I'd be interested to see as the BSH intake does look very good value.

for the money and the fact its almost s3 / cupra ready (just need to buy a 90 degree silicone reducer) i wouldn't argue. BUY one :)

but am def interested in the bsh one now we have had some feedback on here
