Title: Intake noise
Post by: mattypgolf on December 14, 2011, 10:14:24 pm
Hi fitted a new dbalias intake, seems to make a high pitched noise under full load in the mid to high rev range, did the same when i had a neuspeed fitted..

anyone got any ideas?

thanks

My Leon Cupra seems to make this noise with out an intake on at all just a remap. Do you think the intake has made much difference to performance, i'm trying to decide which intake to get either forge twin take, itg or db.

Umm a little bit, feels a bit more torqueyy lol waiting to get a pipercross filter to make it a hybrid... Followed by a remap after Christmas. Thats where the gains should be good
