Default Which intake would you pick?

I'm looking at purchasing a new intake for my 225Q. Of these two, which would be a better performer: The Mishimoto, or the Neuspeed? Those are pretty much the only 2 I have seen, and I know I don't want to drill a bunch of holes in my stock airbox.

Thanks for any advice!

-Steve

I just installed a HKS super mega flow. I might have been dumb about it though, I bought the kit for a VW, which works, but they give you a heat shield, and a bunch of brackets and clamps and stuff, all designed for a passat. All you really need is filter, although a bracket to hold it steady is probably good. I modified the brackets that came with the kit to work.I think its pretty trick for being as simple as it is. I suppose I can use my new camera and go take a pic... : )

I'm curious to see if you modified the brackets that came with it in the same way I did and a breather filter from an autoparts store will snugly fit inside the smaller hose that runs to the stock filter box

if ur going filter only, best bet is to use the bottom half of the stock airbox.

BMI flowstack with a AEM filter. Then you go to atpturbo and get the 1" filter for the sai

Intake



Little twist I made to mount to the neck of the filter. Thats the extent of my modificationizing. Used the stock airbox bracket to mount.

I really need to pressure wash that engine bay...

I went to the lower hole for the stock airbox and did it w/o the little twist but pretty much same idea I want a black filter for it though
