Teddys kit came while i was away so fitted it this morning with a mate and it took half hr max! Considering the fact i have the valvtronic engine it just bolted straight on and came with everything needed!
I know in past fas had a bit of a game fitting his but was kinda a prototype thingy this is plug and play so all you 4 potters out there get buying!

I went back to my standard airbox as the car had to go in to have its aircon checked which incidentally is buggered, no gas and needs a new evaporator and dryer when it has its service in mid november :mad: (warranties are [bow )
Anyway, couldn't believe how much quieter the car was. The minute the car was home it was off with the airbox and back on with the CAI - ah, now much more like it.
How does the 2.0 sound now with the intake? Looks really good in the engine bay Russ.
nice one man!!
Just a thought but how cool would it be if they made a M3 group M style intake for the valvetronic?

unless you rolling road it i dont know, on feel it pulls better and definatly seems to be quicker speed and the way the rev counter moves, so from that i would gather it prob would boost HP it also unless its just me has got rid of a small flat sopt i had.
