I had @RetroRaz help with the intake on the weekend. Here's how it looks now with the engine cover modified too:

Yeah I'd be up for meeting up mate, will have a look when I'm free! Yeah it still has a nice rumble on tick over it has toned it down a little but you know it's there :)

Intake looks sweet mate! Really like the modified engine cover too, did you do the trimming yourselves or did you buy it already done? How does the ram air sound compared to the revo on mine is it as load?

My mate Raz actually did the cutting of the engine cover the same day, as I didn't want to fit the intake without fitting the engine cover.

To be honest, it's not as loud as I expected it to be (kinda expected mad whooshing noises like yours!). Again, you may like mine, as it has a civilised whooshing/suction noise when you put your foot down.

We'll need to compare them again. Just let us know when you are free sometime.

By the way what did you do with your decat pipe?

Sounds like he was a big help then mate, I was tempted to do mine but wanted the option to put it back on for whatever reason!

Oh really, I thought the ram air was louder than the revo tbh, I'll definitely have to have a listen then, I do love the revo intake ticks all the boxes for me!

I'll drop you a pm to sort something out then mate, and regarding the decat pipe I still have it, I've put it up on the for sale section on here but not sold it yet so spread the word if you know of anyone after one!

Hi Dan, I was wondering if you had noticed my build thread, don't know whether you remember I spoke to you regarding the car when I bought it back in April?

Cheers mate, still loving the car now, decided to get her back to stage 2+ as she was when you were the owner :) have you still got your Golf R?
