Panel filter vs CAI

<< < (3/3)

TT-Turbo:
I used to have the Neuspeed P-Flo intake for my K03 audi TT. I found it to be very noisy as everyone else has said and got a decent amount of heatsoak when  in stop start traffic.

ITG developed a intake kit for the TT on my car and now I can barely hear any intake noise. A little bit of suction noise under load but really minimal and that's it really. If I changed to the ITG from stock and took a friend out they wouldn't notice any different. It's down to the enclosed filter that they have done. Here is a pics.




Seems to be given massive torque figures and looks pretty meaty with a 5" bore! :wink:

I don't know whether there is a company out there that offer's an enclosed intake for the Golf specifically. This ITG kit wouldn't work due to the massive airbox and the lack of battery in the front of the TT. From previous knowledge I think Pipercross had an enclosed filter induction kit for VAG K03 fitment. Worth a look.

VWR do an enclosed intake for the tfsi very similar to the one thats fitted in the above car.

I think that's the ideal solution for a quieter intake system. Anything enclosed will deaden the sound massively and just leave a very subtle intake sound. ITG make the VWR kit and is pretty much the same thing as the system I have on there. Only difference is size of the bore and VWR get the kit anodized instead of powder coated.

AndyED30:
I've got the VWR CAI for my K04 Ed30 and there's no high-pitched noise whatsoever, just a great suction noise when flooring it and an increased (but not too loud) DV sound when giving it beans. When your pottering round town you wouldn't even know it's there tbh.

webby888:
nice one, closed filter it is then :)
