A cold air intake that actually works?

Drilling doesn't work, tried that. You can mackle together a cold air feed but even that was no better than a smoothed airbox with the dsg mod.

It would of been interesting to test my old vr6, out of all the cars i have owned, drilled box and filter certainly felt alot more responsive.
With a stock box and filter the vr6 felt quite flat up to 4000rpm, then really flew.
When it was 'modded' the car felt more responsive from 2500rpm, but i would say with no extra top end power.
Just an opinion, not based on a rolling road.

Yep similar principle, but apples and oranges. Add forced induction and a much much more complex ecu into the mix things get a bit trickier.

I've actually got a question about 1.8T(sorry for changing the subject).
My dad's 2001 A4 code AVJ. The throttle feels too sensitive, as in you can't change gear without revving up on the clutch.
What would cause this?

[topher]

does it over rev when you put the clutch in to change gear at all? if so i suspect clutch pedal switch.. if not then a throttle body clean might cure it.

That is a grat right up Topper. was very iontrested in every thing you had to say there and i cant wait to see what you conclude after using the kit on other cars. (if you need a agu car im avalable )
Wil be intresting how much the kit will sell for at the end.

Its like i've still got my foot on throttle when i depress the clutch, but i obviously haven't!!
I have to leave a second between coming off the gas, and going on the clutch.
The problem is worse with full throttle, and high up the rev range, so its hard to cane it 
I've tried a throttle body alignment, VAG-com shows no codes.
Its been like it for 2 years since he bought it, it had 25k on it then, now it has 45k.
Thanks for any advice.
