Foam filters not the best IMO. Not that good at filtering air really, smaller particles tend to get through.

Jetex FTW.

Engine dependant really for size, however a Jetex from Badger 5 would be what I would go with, and use personally.

Pricing will need to be confirmed with Bill. Email on sales@badger5.co.uk for more info.

I've always been a sceptic based on the fact that if you drive through a big old puddle, you're in trouble.

I don't deny the idea is sound, it's just you wouldn't want to go driving through any floods for example...

ITG just released a tri-foam 1.8T kit, have been running the development kit on mine and can't fault it! enclosed so not too loud and takes a proper cold air feed from behind the headlight!

Good good, the thought of hydrolock makes me have brown trousers....

Smoothed out standard S3 air box with green cotton filter gave me something like 7lb of torque and 4bhp when I did before and after VCDS logging. That does me but I'm a tight ****

Hi all

Thanks for the replys and suggestions...

I want something thats very noisey i get a good sound from what iv got on already but its black with dirt and like you same mate, i also get brown trosers when going through big puddles, due to the carbonio induction pipe. What filter have you got on your carbonio induction pipe?

 

[DaveA3]

its the red filter that came with it. dunno if its just generic or their own type. ive heard some people put different filters on the end and it gave a quieter sound. something to do with the filter flexing slightly.

I have had a no-name cold air induction kit (carbonio style) on my 1.8T all through winter and been through all manner of puddles and im still going strong.
