I'm thinking about fitting a Carbonio Carbon Fiber Cold Air Intake to my ED35...As it's the same engine as the MK5 has anyone fitted this one..

Try zero improvement lol.

Forge do a twintake using 2 carbon fibre canisters, or there's ITG,Evoms, BDM, to name few Cold intake versions which will give up to a 20bhp gain

Steve is spot on, I have it fitted and there hardly any gain. The others mentioned are more expensive but are better.

These still look nice non the less.
