Im still looking for a cold air intake for my 02 A4 1.8T. All I've found is Carbino and Evo. Is there anything else out there? Anyone with a carbino is it worth the price. I'm looking for the intake suction sound and performance.

Most will say an intake is pointless for this car.  The stock airbox is supposed to be very efficient.

People also usually suggest the evo one, because carbonio costs so much, and is basically a stock intake turned upside down.

Sound you will get.  Performance? Unfortunately not so much add.  If you must get an intake, I'd say go for the evo one.

Hope this helps.

I have Evoms and I like it. Cant really notice the performance gain but whatever.

I heard that some peoples carbonio turns green or something because of the carbon fiber and looks horrible, but APR will give you another one for free if you play your cards right.

I say get Evoms and get a replacement cone filter from K&N. The Evoms filter is a piece of S***.

O ya, my filter sounds really great and deep now. sounds awesome

I like Evoms intakes, Carbonio are nice but a little expensive for an intake.
