Carbonio Carbon Fiber Cold Air Intake

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..

Don't expect much in the way of performance improvement...
Without traction power is nothing!

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.
