The standard one is very soft and can tear easily in less than 20k, see Nev_LCR's recent post. http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=199699 Also the OE one is prone to this at high boost: http://www.forgemotorsport.co.uk/intake.mpg The Forge silicone one is tougher, won't collapse, comes in a colour choice and looks shiny Last edited: Dec 20, 2008
