honestly ur best bet is to get a drop in k&n filter or those blue filters. and just stick with the stock airbox. It provides a sufficent amount of air to the powerplant. If u want to achieve more sound out of your turbo u can pull the airbox out and take out all the sounddeadening material and that will increase the noise level of the turbo.

what do you mean more turbo noise? like hearing it spool??

Slade 08-23-2011 08:55 PM

can i pull the sound deading without replacing the stock intake?

My advice
 
i just put the carbonio on my B6 1.8T and not saying that its a bad unit, but after i installed it i dont care for it. it does make allow you to hear your turbo spool up but the part that i dont like is that when you release off the gas you hear a noise thats verry simular to a BOV and to me it sounds like a Japanise car. so my next audi i wont do an intake. if you can try to find someone in your area that has one on a turbo audi/vw b4 u buy to see if u like it.

yes turbo spool. And the sound deadening material is inside the airbox where the filter goes. 4rings4life are u still on the stock dv or u aftermarket.

Slade 08-24-2011 04:25 PM

so to remove the sound deading im guessing i have to take out the intake which i can do and then what?

pa4ul 08-24-2011 06:12 PM

just strip out the sound deadening material that is inside the airbox go buy a k&n filter or whatever highflow filter of ur choosing and thats bout it. Just drop it in and ur good to go

Slade 08-24-2011 09:35 PM

is there a k&n filter u would perfer? or other?
