Sportback Proram intake £300

[Rayner_1704]

anyone seen this new intake? Came across it on eBay £300 if your after just noise I’d say it’s worth a go https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.co.uk/ulk/itm/352549705772

Never saw that one before looks good and a good price too! Quite like the LEYO one aswell , don’t really wanna pay 800/900 on a carbon one when am just after an induction noise too!

So I took the plunge and ordered it using the eBay discount. Cost me around £255 in total which I thought wasn’t bad. £45 discount. Will keep you all updated. I’m not expecting much apart from a bit more noise etc.

Keep us updated. I will be going down this route based on what's currently on offer

I think you will be pleasantly surprised. I used to own a MK2 focus RS and all of the big powered cars used open cones as they often performed better than the cold air intakes such as the eventuri. That car has the same ecu as the RS3 (pretty much).

It’s a big saving based on the adventuring one for 6 x’s the price....

So I had the kit delivered yesterday and fitted today. Everything fitted flush no problems. Very snug fit. In comfort defiantly hear the turbo spooling and a lot more induction noise. In Dynamic the exhaust is open so can’t really hear the difference. Overall I am happy with it. Only cost £255 too!

did you fit it yourself ? do you have any other modifications ?

I got a friend to fit it for me and I helped out. Other modifications are milltek secondary cat deletes. Nothing else mechanically.

Got milltek deletes as well. Would be interesting to see performance gains. Are you getting a remap

Not anytime soon no. Will eventually but maybe later in the year. I’m not too sure on performance gains. Would be interested to know this myself.

At low crawling speeds in traffic, you will be able to hear a popping noise coming from the DV. Gets really annoying.

@teddyrs3 so, have you heard this noise above and what is your experience so far with the kit?

 

[BlakeTillz]

Hey @Lehn

I sold the kit mate as it was really annoying and sounded stupid gone back to original

Oh, didn't knew you had this exact kit mounted. But thanks for the feedback! This will not be on the grocery list for my upcoming RS3 then

Think I'll go with the Leyo then, since I'm not paying more than £500 for an induction kit.
