If youve got your sights set on the carbonio Id shop for a used one, theyre expensive for what they are.  In the long run 3" CAI systems would be better as you may end up deciding on stage2 / 2+

As you didn't seem to see the hint in my earlier reply, i'll try the more direct approach.

TXT speak is neither required nor appreciated on a forum, there simply is no need for it.  You aren't limited by the number of characters and anything other than that is just plain lazy.

Found yourself an inlet matey?  I rushed out & got a carbonio when  I got my Cupra.  They look really nice but performance wise didnt really do anything.
Wish Id waited and put the money towards a 3" inlet system rather than spend the money twice  :rolleye:

There was alot of debate between Forge twintake and ITG Maxogen.  They both came out about the same time and both have proven great results.
The Forge is more expensive but some think it looks nicer.

I am very happy with the ITG.  Andy @ ITG is very helpful.  You maybe able to get forum discount when ordering online from Forge (im sure seatcupra.net gets 10%)

Maybe use the search tool on here and find peoples reviews on the inlets  :happy2:
