Great parts kit and bang for the buck
For the money, you are getting a lot of kit (heatshield box, main intake cone filter, secondary air filter, rigid silicone turbo hose, and large bore turbo inlet pipe, and tons of MST free swag!). I know most people say a CAI is kind of a waste of money until you go stage 2, but I've seen the 3rd party bench test numbers published online with regard to how much CFM this entire system pushes compared to oem and competitors, and it's the top dog when it comes to CAI for the mk7 platform. There's currently nothing out there on the market that beats it in terms of CFM air rating. I notice an obvious difference in noise, but more importantly I noticed a difference in performance even at stage 1 when I compared it against my modified stock air intake system ( which I had already removed the snow guard, and dropped in a k&n high flow filter too). MST dyno'd this system for a ~13hp gain, and while I cannot confirm this, I do believe there is a noticeable difference compared to my modified stock setup. While I can't confirm HP gainzzz, I easily noticed the increase sensitivity in my throttle response. My butt dyno also seems to confirm a quicker car, but who knows. I'm happy with it, and can't wait to go stage 2.
High quality and performance
This CAI was easy to install and the materials and build are high quality with excellent performance and sound.
Great Kit!
This intake system has everything needed and the price can't be beat. You get what looks like quality built filter, silicon pipe, turbo inlet and the SAI is included. Everything was perfectly sealed and packed with all the parts needed for the build. Shipping took a little over a month, but not BMP's fault. Install was simple and straight forward, didn't even have to follow the instructions. I didn't have any issues with any screws stripping or breaking.
Easy Install, long shipping
The install was very simple, the engine bay looks so good, the car sounds soooo amazing, and runs great. However the shipping took more than a week, and that was after I had emailed them multiple times asking whether or not it was being shipped. finally though once it had arrived it was neatly packed and CAME WITH A SECONDARY AIR FILTER. (I read a review saying it didn't so I bought one but this intake does come with one and has zipties). All in all its a great product and worth the price.
Looks and functions awesome
I echo all of the comments in the last review. I had initially bought the turbo inlet and hose, then decided to go with the full intake to make it look better. The only flaw I see in the design are the Allen screws for the cover. Small, hard to work with and one of the sockets stripped on me. All fixable but beware when installing. I love it. It was very easy to install otherwise.
