Are there any differences to the Carbonio except the price??? This one comes witha Pipercross filter as well?

Have you tested it under forced induction, or on a standard dyno ?

Here is a comparison of the same APR stage 1 car with and without the Carbonio. Torque was said to show a 4ft-lb gain acorss the board.

I ran with a Carbonio copy and saved a fortune by getting it from the states.

for me but wouldn't say perf wise it did much.

Where did you get yours from Keith? Was it a website?

It was from the ebay, search the USA one and look for carbonio's with offers accepted as thats what i got. Greenouse got it 1st. I offered a fair bit less and got accepted the P&P was about $50 but at the time its about Ã‚Â£25 and no import tax as they marked it gift

total incl delivery must have been about Ã‚Â£95.
