Which intake for power gains
« on: January 11, 2011, 07:03:26 pm »
Hey peeps, I'm looking at replacing the stock intake, which
is best for power gains? :wink:

I've ran mk3 VR6's with BMC CDA and enjoyed the improved
throttle response and loudness :happy2:

Am a newbie when it comes to Mk5's so wondered what you guys/
gals are running and why? And point me in the right direction :happy2:

cheers

To be honest mate, I am not going to answer  :chicken:
There are loads of threads here asking what is the best intake, use the search function and you will find reviews of most intakes for the MK5.
Don't want to scare you off as you are new here but just try it.
