How do Carbonio Intakes actually work?

johnhol78:
From what I can see the Carbonio replaces the standard intake and gets it's air from the same place (top of grill).

How does this make any difference to the standard one? Does the volume make a difference? Would this be enough to go stage 2 with?

Or is it as I expect....fluff  :chicken: Pure eye candy to make the engien bay look nicer? At £200 that's a lot of candy  :wink:

Great  :sad1:

So an induction kit would be needed for true use?

Basically yes, though you won't be dissapointed once you do get one!

I suspect the gains are primarily made by using a different drop in filter (a Pipercross one).
