Did you guys notice much difference with going from an uprated tip to a supersize one?

It's difficult to say, I fit the supersized intake pipe together with the hybrid turbo, larger intercooler, water methanol injection, larger maf and air filter. But what was immediately apparent to me was the noise, the turbo whistle was significantly louder on boost.

Oh yes. I love the noise of a turbo making that whistle. Need to fit mine today. I failed on 3 different things last night. Went to fit the silicone hoses failed as i need to grt under the car (tires are down) so thought i would do my front centre console. Fitted that but the damn cig light dont work so took it back out. So i thought ok il do my arm rest. Quess what? Left the bloody shoulder bolt at home. So going again today and hopefully il have mad4vws helping me out cant wait. Lol

Mine just popped on, I managed to fit my supersized intake pipe from above. I don't have a heater matrix so no heater pipes to contend with. Only difficulty I had was aligning the diverter valve to meet with both the charge pipe and intake pipe.
