Let me begin by saying YES, I DID search before posting.

Question: I want to get an intake to increase hp/engine response a little, as well as increase turbo noise/bov noise. From doing the search I have gained that the AEM CAI, Injen CAI, RMR Filter, and ARC Induction box are good choices.

I guess what I am asking is.. for the money which of these best performs? I don't want to pay a lot, but I DO want something that is worth-while (for now, as well as future with other mods) and will perform well.

If something is better than what I have posted, please state it, and why its good.

Thanks.

 

Go with the APS intake.

 

Why?

Anyone else?

 

no tune, no intake. search a little harder.

 

..and this is exactly why a lot of people complain about people on this forum. Forums are for people to discuss, as well as find out new information from others. If someone wants to post a new topic about their concern, they should be able to without being criticized about it.

 

please elaborate you intelligent son of a gun

 

I have a DSG 3" aluminum intake pipe with a Blitz Sus filter. The filter is made of stainless steel mesh, and it is very loud. I don't think it comes down to better, more like preference. The Blitz intake has a very mechanical sound that works well for me. I don't recommend the Blitz filter without a re-Flash cause it runs like a$$ over 4,000 Rpm.

Good Luck

 

a tune is a must with the intake because you will lose boost because the ecu is trying to compensate. A boost controller will be needed to raise the boost level back to stock or higher. I have the Injen with hardpipe and don't regret it. Aem, Hks, helix are all good but there is a thread about the typhoon saying how bad it was. Keep in mind the stocker will get you into 11's still.

 

Helix

 

Yea, someone told me that with a intake tho... the turbo is louder, the stock bov is loud, and you gain engine performance. All of that sounded good to me, I love bov noise, as well as turbo noise.. so it sounded like a good idea to me.

If there is another way to do this, please let me know. I would be happy just getting a new bov.. and being able to hear it. But is that possible? (when recirulated?)

 

You can faintly hear the APS bov, and your car will run great with it.

 

I was running the HKS RS, I switched to APS.

 

HKS Racing Suction Intake System is another good choice

Unbelievable...

Just buy the Injen Intake and call it a day. It will meet all of your "needs."

 

the best intake is the stock box, just get a high flow drop in
