Default hey i just put in an intake. here are my impressions
got it off of ebay.de a while back when i got my tails.

well i put it in today and first thing i notice is the spooling up sound with the PSSHHHTTT sound. SOUNDS GREAT!! like i have a BOV. now my friends complement me when they hear the turbo.

but there is one bad thing, it seems that the car is slower. it takes longer for the turbo to reach its potential. anyone else have this problem? do i need to do a throttle adaptation??

But then I'm not sure if it is causing the problem. The intake sounds real nice tho.
