Anyone got one of these??

[Wildengti]

Wondered if anyone had this kit, if any difference was made, how easy to fit and worth buying??

I would take a guess at unless you're running seriously modified turbo and performance then they're overkill.

I think these are a good mod for anything over stage 2. The discharge pipe is quite restrictive if i remember correctly, it narrows and bend in op point.

Are them pipes a no make cheapy brand? As i think the Neuspeed ones go for a bit more than that.

More of a supporting mod and as mentioned by Ross it aids the all important flow. Have a look at CTS as both the Throttle body and Discharge pipes can be had for £300 for the pair. IIRC Alex at AKS has been known to fab these up too.

That one on eBay only has a 2" internal diameter, Neuspeed one is 2.25" and the CTS has an internal diameter of 2.5".

You normally on fit a system like this to a seriously powerful car, it will be a little overkill on a golf I think

^^^^ Its for a Golf so obviously it's not overkill, as mentioned its more of a supporting mod.

Yeah their overkill, you need 1200hp to run intercooler hardpipes

That's for the TSi engine rather than the TFSi.

They do actually help a little on the TFSi.  I usually use the CTS versions.

Its not so much the hard pipe, its more the same diameter all the way from start to finish.

@Alex, i thought the TSI narrowed quite a bit from the turbo side as well, looks like its does from underneath the car?

will this fit the ko4 set up?

What do you mean?

This tsi pipe is ridiculous and definetly worth changing.. Fsi isnt to bad

I thnk we are saying the same thing mate. The TSI pipe goes very thin after the turbo and would benefit from this.
