It certainly looks very "awesome" but more in a functional way - It's only my opinion but I still wish that ITG had resolved the foam seals more aesthetically than a couple of foam blocks on top of the battery.
It looks very purposeful and its many components have been very well manufactured as SteveP's pics show.
The intake has suited Steve's individal car performance very well too. That's why I hope others will also post their plots here in this review. As I say, it looks very promising indeed.
The ITG Maxogen would appear to clearly be a high-end intake.

Robin, I like things to look right to and have trimmed my "bits of foam" a little here and there and it looks much more finished, I'll take some pics when I get a chance , what we need to remember is all ITG do is filters and intakes, its what they do, a lot of the other intakes are made by companies that do all sorts of products. I'm not saying that makes their intakes worse, but if you were buying brakes you'd go to a company that did brakes, need I say anymore :wink:

Good point mate. Thier development is soley on Inets / filters! Sell me you PR1.2s in Jan!
Steve, do you know anything about modifying the transmision cooling duct to aid air flow to the ITG? May just be a Leon thing...

....That's good that you are able to trim your 'foam bits' (Parisienne?) and I do hope that people don't think I'm anti the Maxogen - I'm just being very honest about my thoughts on it.
I'm not aware of other intakes which ITG have produced. Filters yes, and with an excellent reputation for them, and I have an ITG panel filter installed. That doesn't mean to say that ITG can't produce excellent intakes as well.

If you love the chatter on yours you should hear the one on the Seat. So much louder than mine.
I didnt know the intake was known as the maxogen though.

Maxogen is the range name for all the ITG intake kits - http://www.itgairfilters.com/content2.asp?section=maxogen :happy2:
I have heard it on Revo's Leon and it's slightly louder than the K04 based Golf, but that's mainly down to the differences in the sound proofing.
Plus i have found the Forge DV really brings the wastegate sound alive :evilgrin:
