Congratulations on the upgrade sir. Full intake and FMIC even sans flash/tune/etc give a the car a good deal of pickup over stock - i ended up going with the IE carbon intake (something about consuming air from inside the engine bay didn't sit right), APR turbo elbow, and an APR FMIC (sprayed black, to look as stock as possible). Boost onset is definitely quicker, turbo sound is marvelous, and top end is ~10% stronger across the high power band into redline.
While the carbon pieces are quite pretty, idea was to try and keep IATs down after i touched the airbox at the end of a few hours of spirited driving... no more minor burns now, but also not too inclined to touch the carbon and leave prints .
For something that doesn't even void the warranty (i checked with Audi), better intake plumbing is very well worth the money.
