I've heard one on a GTI and it sounded very chavvy and a bit synthetic.

Tuners have noticed that it leaks boost too  :sick:

If you haven't fitted an intake, something like an EVOMS or ITG or Revo will give you a decent sound and give you some power to go with it  :happy2:

If sound is what you are seeking...I have been reading the GFB's DV rebuild is a good one as well as being a good performer.
Try headphones for better audio:

This on at 4:25:


If my AWE DV ever fails I plan to throw on a GFB DV. They are much less like Curly's whoop whoop whoop....:

To be honest I like the chatter a lot and I am waiting for my induction kit to arrive managed to get one fairly cheap and see what that sounds like it's a full k&n. Until I can save some money for evoms or revo. Though cheap DV will keep me happy but I am not sure.

Is anyone running both the induction and dv?
