Title: Best Inductionkit/Filter
Post by: mattyGTi on 23 February 2006, 16:01: Hey guys, first post! what is the Best Inductionkit/Filter for under Ãƒâ€šÃ‚£100? for a 1.8T golf. Are induction kits a nogo with this engine? I quite fancy
something that will make the turbo more audiable. Or is a panel filter best?

thanks :laugh:

You have a RamAir induction kit or panel ? Also, which Induction kits are oil based? Green? K&N?
