Hi mate welcome to the forum :). There are a few about and the carbonio one above is a good performing and smart bit of kit. Ive got a jabbasport one on my 04 plate cupra. Its got a stainless steel box section to keep the hot engine air away from it and think it looks smart in the engine bay. Mine was off a golf so had to do a little bit of modding to fit it (cut about an inch off the top with a grinder) but much improved throttle response and nice noise (not to much) of it. Il post a pic later. I was lucky and only paid £100 for it only a month old but suppose it depends on how much u want to spend. If not to bothered about looks and happy to keep the standard airbox then replacing the panel filter will give you pretty much the same results for a lot less. Quite a few swear by them on her mate.

Mmm
As has been said , they do fit the Golf 4 too
The 180bhp AUQ engine , is the same in an Octavia vRS and the Golf 4 Anni , so most parts swap over
A bit more help there ;)
The Forge 007P DV may be a good upgrade too , wont give any extra BHP , but the OEM one does fail quite alot , so that would be good with it too
I must admit , we also do the ABD LAN pipe

There is a pic
My son has this on his Golf GTi , but I think the Carbonio has a slight edge over the drooliness of the noise (not a proper word , but it should be) :lol:
Check out and see if you can drop on too , with a second hand one as they do swap over

Hey
We are expecting these within the next couple of days....sorry
I have only just noiced we are out of them :(
But wont be long
Then we will get it straight out for you , next day delivery via courier too
Little awkward to fit , its one of those where you can scrape skin off the back of your knuckles.....
But well worth it
I drove 37 miles back home with my son`s LAN pipe on
It was snowing too
I had the window down so I could hear it....
Wow it was fun
