Looks alright, v similar concept to bsh but no doubt it has much better filter on it, but I question how much air and what temp the air will be drawn in unless you have open fog grills

no doubt well see some logging soon though to show benefits

still prefer look and the concept of the forge twintake over that tbh

I think the same.

ITG make good filters but are they going to leave that 'foam' cone exposed? It'll surely get into a filthy state.

myt thought exactly, Imagine the amount of salt and sh*t from the road that is going to get stuck on there. wont be any good then. Im holding out for the forge one i think. althoough mine is pretty rare and works very well.

main reason i bought it was they were rare , i got a mega deal, and the piping matched the paintwork :ashamed:

SteveP:
From seeing it after a few thousand miles on the Revo car it hadn't picked-up any major amount of the dirt.

Visually (apart from the massive forge badges) theirs looks better but with something like this I think I would rather function over form  :happy2:

Will be interesting to see what results the forge gets in terms of peak airflow (not just claimed BHP increases) to compare to the ITG one  :smiley:

wigit:
reminds me i must give them a call  :wink:

Janner_Sy:
the forge is going to be pulling in pure cold air though, from either the ram air scoop in the slam panel, or from the bottom filter acting as a CAI below the head light. the ITG one will get a little air given to it from the slam panel but also from the engine bay.

plus i think once on the move the forge intake should press home an advantage for having a ram air intake built into it. plus it looks infinately better than all the others on the market
