Oh I like this. If it was available without the R logo, it would look factory.

On their cup intake I've seen pics of it with "Volkswagen Racing" instead of just "R" on.

I'm hoping they do a Volkswagen Racing version of this, would look really neat under the bonnet.

Need to see price and hear sound before I think about swapping, the Apr sounds better than I thought it would tho so maybe this will too

I have to admit I like the look of the carbononio one from APR but I like the VW dealership friendly look of the VWR version!

I don't think it's carbononio or whatever they call it, they make a thing of correcting people on fb strangly but I know what you mean, just hoping its not a rip off

The Mk6 was Carbonio, just assumed it would be the same?

I agree and it looks like the same style too, but ive seen it more than once on FB where APR have come back to peoples comments and said this isnt Carbonio this is our own in house development. Maybe cost cutting maybe they nicked enough staff from carbonio to build their own branch lol

Fair enough, at least we don't need to worry about pronouncing it :)
