gives the bov sound when you let off the gas and pressure has built up

 

Just because you go Carbonio doesnt necessarily mean that you are expecting much. Some people like really nice, clean looking stuff under the hood.
With the stock turbo you arent going to get a major increase in power from any filter setup.

 

2nd. I didn't have TOO much difference even with a k04.

Also here's mine, it's easy just make your own heat shield.

 

^is that diamond plating lol

you probly wont get any minor increase either

 

Yea, I have lots of wierd extra metal hanging around. Wait. no I mean it's all about the bling. yea. that's it.

 

lol well you need to bling the outside of your car and get some springs. looks like a 4x4 in your sig

and sorry this is off-topic but bishop, what are you holding and spiking with Dahlback?

 

Sorry, my last car was a lifted ford ranger with 35" mudders on it, so I'm still getting used to being close to the ground. I'm planning on selling the car next summer and getting an S4, so I'm not going to do too much else to it.

The dahlback chip is actually for the k03, so it was was kindof surgy(sp?) with the k04 so I have a mbc also.
But it spikes at about 19 and holds at about 17.

 

sick. i wana try and get my k04 up to 20 psi cuz its only holding 16 and spiking 18. but everything working now? no more surging with the mbc? and how are your a/f ratios?

 

Wait a minute, I don't get it. What the heck is the point of doing this mod if you don't drill through the fender liner??????? The whole F***in point is to grab air from the fender area. You put holes in the box so you could grab more hot air from the engine bay???? That is an anti-mod because you now grab more hot air than stock. That doesn't sound very smart to me. ~shrugs~

 

Actually thats not really true. I thought the same thing but i put the holes low and further away from the trubo. I didnt just blow a huge hole in the back of my air box. The air mainly gets pulledin from under the box and theres also a little heat guard on the frame rail that keeps the turbo air from being sucked straight into the box down there. I did it this way because my buddy who did the mod already told me i shouldnt and i always take peoples first hand advice when it comes to this DIYstuff. plus its winter and i didnt want to ruin the ITG i was going to buy BUT now that im scrathing the whole thing its not really important.
