I dont have it on now mate as it was rubbing on the engine cover so I sold it to another member.
I will be getting a proper Seat Sport strut brace when I can be arsed to sort one out. Strut brace prob wonte affect your insurance as it soesn't increase performance, as its more fore cosmetics.

Just fitted a large cone filter and the sound of the turbo spool and DV is realy nice :D no chavy realy loud induction sound, just a nice growl [B)]

Think I'll get a new MAF before the RS Tuning RR day as I think mine is under reading by about 10%

Any issues with heat soak? I had an induction kit on my tdi which sounded really nice! :D Nice sucking noise when throttling - even lightly. But when I found out it was doing more bad than good - it went.

Noise is just right. While cruzing you cant even hear it, but when giving it the beans the turbo whisstle is MUCH louder as is the DV sound. It also has a very nice sucking sound when the turbo starts to spool :D

It does seam to pull a little stronger but I wonte know till I can get some logs done. I was getting quite low MAF readings before so hopefully this will help.

The filter is just a cheapo halfords one clicky. I had some vouchers so it didn't cost me anything ;)

I also got some paint for a nice little mod I got planned :whistle:

Just made up a blanking plate today so I can remove the SAI. Not sure when I will get time to do it though.
