Default What Intake should I get for 2008 A4 2.0T Avant Quattro?

Hey guys! Im new to the forums. I had a question. What kind of Intake should I get for my new ride? INFO: 2008 A4 2.0T Avant Quattro
So far the only thing I have done to my car is chipped it. It increased my horsepower by a bit and torque. Im getting exhaust, lowering springs, and rims from Neuspeed pretty soon.
Let my know what you think about the intake though!!!

Thanks!

Ehh, there are no gains from it, but Carbonio or Evo Motorsports makes them. I have the Carbonio, it was like $350+ new.

Average time; probably a few business days. Just a heads up though, the fitmit for the carbon fiber top to the "heat shield" is not very good, you may no fit a screw or two in. No issues though. Get ready for a great DV sound and turbo spool[sm=happybounce.gif]

HMMM thats not good. It still fits though doesnt it. Like it will sit in there just fine? Well aslong as I get a good sound, ill be happy, but I hope that the heat sheild will stay attached?? Does a few screws really make a difference?

The only problem i had was the Carbon was a little to big to fit under the left side of the bay. i just cut it a little bit its really no biggy.

Good Luck

I just had the evoms intake installed last week and I could not be happier. It has definetly improved the performance on my engine. Whether that is more HP or just a change in the power curve I don't know but when you step on the accellerator the car just wants to go go go. The hesitation if the lower rpms is gone and it has a strong smooth pull like it niver had before. Keep in mind my car is not chipped. I also have the Forged DV and AWE exhaust. The intake makes more noise than I was expecting and I am still getting use to that but the increase in performance has me smiling each time I get behind the wheels. The throttle is much more responsive, that acceleration through 80mph is smooth and strong and much much better, fast, smoother that it was before.


I chose the evoms over the carbonio for several reasons. 1. My tuner shop recommened that one, 2. it is siginificantly cheaper and I don't care about the pretty CF lid of the carbonio. noone will be ever looking under my hood except me and the shop I go to. In addition I new a couple people who had both the carboinio and the evoms and they both felt that they could feel more power from the evoms. i don't if that is statistically true or not. Lots of debate out there wether the intakes actually give you more HP and i can definetively say wehter it did or not because I did not do a pre/post dyno but I do know the car either has more power or the power has changed for the better in the lower and mid rpms.
