Title: I bought the golf gti t
Post by: gtidaz on 04 February 2008, 16:13

WOW so glad i did its immense!  Quick question though.  It has a K&N Vortex induction kit on it.  Im abit green when it comes to aftermarket parts so is this a good thing.  Also do you think i should upgrade the dump valve.  Ive read alot of posts about those Forge ones.  

Thanks for any help

If your filter is an oil based get rid and get a cotton one, plays havoc with your air flow meter (MAF) - do you want a sound from your dv or do you just want it to be quit like the factory recirc?
