I'm tempted, but as I like the sound of my EVOM's and they make similar power, it would be daft. :stupid:

I went from a hybrid Evoms (running a superior filter than the Evoms kit) to the Twintake and genuinely felt an increase in performance..

Just from the TWINtake? or did you do something else at the same time?
This is one of the few times that I'm uncertain about swapping.
Jonny, I opted for the dry filter, which flows slightly better than the Oiled EVOM's filter anyway. I know you had the biggy filter fitted, but surely to feel a difference between say for example 350bhp and 360bhp is quite hard anyway? :smiley: :xmassmiley: :santa: :xmaspresent: :xmassmiley: :santa: :xmaspresent: :tree: :tree:

Literally the only change was the Twintake.. I know its hard to believe, but im nothing but impressed with the Forge intake, and it keeps proving itself over and over.. Much to my amusement based on some of the early comments when people saw the prototype on my car :grin:
I wouldn't say it made any difference top end at all to be honest, its was more between 4500 and 6000rpm, just pulled a little harder in the upper mid range.. Certainly a gain though :happy2:
Yeah I think you would feel 10hp :smiley:

^^^^ Proof that each of us have differing ideas about how :sick: or how :drool: something looks or even if it matters. I've always been a bit concerned about having a pleated lampshade under my hood :evilgrin:
Btw, did your airy sounds increase after you added your fog duct from below?
MAT ED30:
