Here are the pics of my custom Gruppe M intake housing with a bit of added polish. It looks so much better than the stock Samco hose affair.

And yes, It definitely goes better with it on. There is no doubt about it. There is more pull at the top end.

Mate, that looks so good, definitely leave it that colour, don't think of anodising it at all, and I still can't get over the fact you made it yourself, awesome work!

Fas, Yes mate it was Hewn from solid aluminium. Are you going to the Middlesex meet on Saturday? You can have a closer look.

Nick: No real increase in noise, but it definitely goes better. I will leave full judgement until I have done a few more miles.
