....Yep, it's great (I think!) that we have such a wide choice though.

After much consideration and research, I've ordered a Forge TWINtake. The ITG was a strong contender for a while.

there is also the K&N version although that doesn't seem to have the take off for the remote DV either. I'm toying with the idea of a CAI but really cannot justify the £300 + for some of the kits.

....Fortunately there are quite a few choices at around or under £200. The intake performance differences are a hotly discussed and debated subject all over cyberspace but it's broadly agreed that differences are generally small. It's something that gets decided by : -

- Performance
- Cost
- Sound
- Appearance
- Build quality

^ In any order of preference you like.

The more power you are wanting to run the more air you want delivered, but I'm simplifying the subject. You already know that modding is a very slippery slope, I'm sure! Especially on this site.

If you want a cheap but well made intake system the BSH intake is the one to go for..  :smiley:

And Dubtek is the man to get a deal on the BSH intake I think.

yep i'll be either going down the bsh one or if K&N do manufacture one with the DV take off then I might go for one of those, either just to be different or because i might be able to pick one up cheap :)
