ITG maxogen - new enclosed filter information.
jedi-knight83:
just got home and ive got to say i dont mind the open itg filter noise.
for the first 5-10 mins when the engine is cooler it seemed louder and maybe because i was part throttle around town but then full throttle and motorway speeds you cant tell much difference in noise
Only think was i seem to have a bit of a whistle (like a harmonica noise) for a few hundred rpm when pulling hard. Is this normal?
In terms of performance it seems alot stronger at the top end :)
Thinking of my failed attempt to fit the enclosed canister im pretty sure i have the wrong slam panel adapter (guy i bought it from had it on an A3). It doesnt fit well at all.
Also I still cannot work out which hoses I'd need to shorten to enable the canister to sit low enough?

Is the whistle around peak torque levels? So about 2800RPM? Mine whistles and its stock intake :happy2:

i'll check tomorrow.
sounds like someone inhaling through a harmonica. not the nicest noise tbh. The rest of the whooshing and sucking I dont mind.

I know what you mean, I had a K&N Typhoon do that sound, removed with in a week. Installed a Twintake last week. Still have the same issue. Which means back to OEM intake for again. I guess I will end up with a Carbonio now.

Just been and had a look again and I can see which pipe you mean now from this image..
Mine wasnt actually touching there and infact mine already seems quite short and out the way.
It seemed to be touching more on the larger pipes underneath?
