We have all done it at some point, although I did not win as my version of a Pig is nowhere near as bad as what my mates call a pig  :signLOL:

I remember one time in Tenerife (Think we were 19 or 20) we had one night of pull a pig, my mate wanders over to us with this beast on his arm and blatantly says to us (with her right next to him) "Break out the talc lads I have the winner here!", I almost peed myself laughing!

The thing is about 'pigs' is that they are usually more grateful for any attention they get, whereas ultra pretty babes can often be difficult and additionally can be too much in love with themselves.

Jeeeze! This is waaaay off topic!

It might also help if someone could post the materials specification, materials, and expected performance from this VWR intake - Or is it on their website?

If you want to see the gains it might be wise to ask Keith@APR to run his Golf R on their new rollers with and without the VWR intake to see the gains it gives

.
Reading APR's info on the posted link (Thanks Mat), it seems an excellent piece of kit and I like the level of detail that has been considered. I know from my own long relationship with VWR that they had been looking at producing an intake for a long time (since before I got my Twintake - I got fed up of waiting for VWR's intake) and that they weren't going to bring anything to market at all unless it performed well enough to be competitive.

This is the result and I can see how APR are a great benefit to them - They were looking for a production partner for an intake. The only niggle is the high price compared to its rivals.
