both are a waste of $$ IMO. You'll get too much heat from this filetr seatnig out rightnext the engine!

Keep yout stock box, drill holes at the bottom and get a better filter and

you can find it on awetuning.com its in teh a6 section for 2.7t ... they claim 10hp i havent noticed it however 10hp isnt going to be noticable anyway however since I got this the DVs and my exhaust my car feels like it can finally breathe ... all a6 owners need to change the paper air filter bc its basically unheathly for the car

I would recommend it over the panel drop in ONLY if you have the money to spend because it may not be worth the price and you can get practically the same performance from a drop in ... basically its not worth the money considering HP gains but it works very well and it makes my car feel better


I think bc of the way it is bent it spirals air instead of straight induction
I checked VAG COM and my meter is right where it should be so it isnt doing anything bad for the car which is often a concern with cold air induction systems liek the one in the initial post of this thread (even tho itd be hot air induction lol bc its seated right next to the scalding hot audi engine!!)
