Forge Twintake Edition 30

(1/2) > >>

MikeGolfed30:
I fitted a Forge Twintake to my Edition 30 this week, and Honestly from reading peoples comments about it being really noisy... either I am deaf or something wrong is with my car :signLOL:

Everything else is standard on the car.  and only in 1st 2nd and 3rd can I hear the induction sucking and wooshing of the turbo if i let off at 3500rpm...

It was wet yesterday and i noticed the traction control was taking over quite a lot which i guess affected my boosting and spooling noise.

Is this where I should be hearing the induction noise?

I double checked orientation of the filters and they are correct, all jubilee clips are tight and no air is escaping or entering without going through the filters and piping.

Got one on my GTI, its noisy when you want it to be dependant on how your driving. When my dad drives the car its barely noticeable.

GrayMK5GTI:
The Twintake is one of the quietest intake as the filter is enclosed. . That's also the reason why it's the most restrictive intake on K04 cars.

Looks good though  :happy2:

That's really interesting you say that, when I first had mine fitted initially I thought it was too loud and noticeable but got used to it over time. May be a stupid question but I wonder if its any different between the GTI and ED30?
