I'll find the link, looks nice and I know one guy who had the prototype.

Left the linik at work, so may not find it until monday. Not advertised on their site.

18hp seems a little ridiculous indeed..but they supplied a dyno on the link so check it out.

But I'm getting tired of the 'Hoover' sound and considering selling it. If you go with the 'Snorkel' type, Neuspeed, EVOMS, AEM etc, this sound may get annoying after a while as it did for me. From what I've seen, the Carbonio does not produce this sound but still offers some gains but not quite as much as the 'snorkle' type intakes. If I can find a used Carbonio I'd buy it and sell my AEM.

but on these Euro cars, well I guess my S, heatsoak is an issue and I've opted to go for the type that truly insulates the filter from the rest of the bay rather than with what K&N calls a "heat shield."

for the 2.0t A4 or GTI/A3.

But I'm getting tired of the 'Hoover' sound and considering selling it. If you go with the 'Snorkel' type, Neuspeed, EVOMS, AEM etc, this sound may get annoying after a while as it did for me.

Sounded awesome, it was quicker, but on these Euro cars, well I guess my S, heatsoak is an issue and I've opted to go for the type that truly insulates the filter from the rest of the bay rather than with what K&N calls a "heat shield." __________________ -- Connect with me
