But if I HAD and FG, I would without hesitation. Was the first thing I did when I took delivery of the TT.

FG-XR6T Member 177 Member For: 17y 1m 1d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 03/08/08 08:45 AM Share Posted 03/08/08 08:45 AM PHANTOM, DID you pull the mesh on the Air intake mate. Apparently that makes a much bigger difference in noise? Does it have more of a flutter sound to it now as well? I have ordered one and am just wait for them to get it in.

There is some sort of screen thingy on the outer housing of the snorkel, but it in no way filters or screens the incoming air.I can't really see what its purpose is to be honest.I had a mate of mine stand in front of the car about 10 feet away and free revved it and then held it on the launch control limiterfor a couple of seconds before and after fitting the new sections and he reckons it sounded exactly the same.I'm really hoping there is an actual difference to rear wheel horespower or I'm gonna be p!ssed.
