Hi guys

Sorry for asking again, like the bigest noob. But i just bought forge twintake for my mk5 2.0 tfsi, gti. So, i like to know which is the right way to turn carbon cans.

Many thanks for answers...

^ Does this help? The arrows show the direction of air taken in from outside the car and towards the MAF.

Both of the two filters should be orientated the same way.

And no need to apologise for asking questions (though I prefer questions posted in the forum rather than getting even more PM's).  :happy2:

Why the vortex creating fins on the incomming side of the hulster? Wouldn't they make more sense on the outgoing side, where the flow of ait would hit them??  :confused:

....Don't ask, Jake! I had enough of trying to get Forge UK and Forge USA to sort themselves out over this. Mine were installed how Forge later decided was the incorrect way around but they work either way and without any measurable difference in performance... Weird!

The important thing is not to change their orientation once installed and used because any collected debris will then be on the wrong side of the filter.

For me the Vortex goal ist to improve the air flow by twisting the air into a swirl mouvement which direct the air flow around the bigger air filter cone instead of letting the air going straight and then bump into the small cone and all the rubber seals.

No mate. Got mine within a few days recently from Larkspeed. Cheapest place that do them at £312 plus £10 delivery. Bargain  :happy2: :xmassmiley:

Just looked your right that is a bargain.

There is a second hand one on here at the moment that I was interested in but the saving isn't worth it at that price.

Thanks for the link.
