do you have links, a google search revealed all sorts nothing to do with intakes for me. Im presuming the filter is within the front ram scoop. Is the filter a cone or panel style in design.

prices etc.

@manuR32

have you considered other intakes or are you keen to go another route as a change.

Because if it is expensive, and your not bothered about price then why not go for a twintake or ITG with have been proven to have big gains.

me personally, i would be dubious of spending alot of money on something thati havent seen many reviews on to base my decision on.

Still it could be very good though. Someone has to take the plunge first

It is a cone filter which sits at a 45 degree to the front of the car :smiley:

....And the carbon collects and funnels air from both the oem forward position and from behind the headlight area where there's much more air entering than we perhaps have hitherto realised.

GruppeM are very popular with BMW modders. Expensive for the GTI but I suspect it's more effective for a normally aspirated car.

Im really hoping it will be worth the money, been trying to save for it since iv had the car and just keep spending the money on other things like alloys! Hopefully gonna have the car re-mapped some where in spain and hopefully have an exhaust fitted at the same time so lots to look forward to when i get home :)

As monkgti says, aftermarket intakes don't deliver a lot of gains but they are an important link in the chain and contribute efficiency to the whole package of performance mods.

Even if very expensive, there's no harm in spending it if you've got it available to spend - People spend much more on sound systems for example. If you enjoy it, that's all that matters. So when am I spending £5k on some carbon Dymag wheels?
