im after abit of noise for abit i think and seen this on ebay. think it would do the job and keep the air cool whilst sounding like a vaccum cleaner?

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-GOLF-MK4-1-8-20V-1999-2004-TURBO-COLD-AIR-FILTER-INDUCTION-INTAKE-KIT-SILVE-/350562246440?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&fits=Model%3AOctavia&hash=item519f235f28

I'm sure there's cheaper ones available, get the cheapest one and put a proper named air filter on

Yes the pipework will be good! Also if you uprate to a forge 007p dv it sounds the mutts nutts!

I would recommend a decent filter for it though, a k&n cone can be had for £30-£40! Got to save that turbo:)

I have a jabba induction kit on mine in a box under bonnet with a 3in cold air feed to it running from front ns front grill that uses a jetex cone filter

Jabba looks a nice set up but an open cone in a bay behind a battery box isnt going to give the coldest best airflow but i bet it sounds nice.

I have no pics of filter on mine just a nice bit of carbon

I dont have room under battery as my intercooler piping is under there,

Does sound rather like its trying to suck glovebox through bulkhead on acceleration

Tried one of the ebay kits but would not fit without moving the horns.

So then tried the cone filter and surround trick, was not keen on it tbh.

I now have carbon goodness, it sounds awesome.

My love of carbon my force me to waste money oneday

Do you have to take the bumper off to fit the carbonio ?

i have a jaaba one, sounds great! although i need to sort a bigger cold air feed.

The only issue I see with mounting the air filter down low is water, especially with all the flooding of late. Should you drive through a ford or a sufficiently deep puddle or bow wave then there is the possibility that the filter may get waterlogged and water may enter the induction system as its sucked up like a giant vacuum cleaner. Result as my brother has found out is that your car will need a new engine due to hydrolocking it.

Do you have to take the bumper off to fit the carbonio ?

Nope, but by the time you removed the battery and headlamp it can be quicker to remove the bumper which only takes 20mins tops.

If you hydro-lock it you are a complete divet. I live in scotland and it ****es it down! If you want to drive through fords you buy a land rover

ahhh thanks for the heads up about the ill fitting ebay kit. loving that carbon one!!! ive got an apexi filter in my garage that i was going to put on the end.

skip has a recirc baileys valve on at the mo and that sounds lovely but i think im craving some sucking sounds :rofl:

Vrs needs a recirulating valve

Nope, but by the time you removed the battery and headlamp it can be quicker to remove the bumper which only takes 20mins tops.

Ah.... I.C do the bumpers come off that easy do they

I need me a haynes manual me thinks

a haynes manual was the first thing I brought for mine lol

Vrs needs a recirulating valve

my baileys is a recirc valve was on when i bought the car. its not too loud but not too quiet. just nice

Wait until you put an air filter on then!

My forge was almost silent then put the carbon kit on and its loud as anything now

my baileys is a recirc valve was on when i bought the car. its not too loud but not too quiet. just nice

I always wondered...... Does the bailey recirculating make the normals squeeky let off

" ok its hard ro describe a noise " like all japs use

Nope, but by the time you removed the battery and headlamp it can be quicker to remove the bumper which only takes 20mins tops.

No need to remove battey , just headlamp and that is 2 minutes job. You can poke filter down the headlight hole and hold it in place or remove lower bumper grill to hold it. Agree though not hard to remove bumper although I fixed mine from underneath now too.

How does your guaze filter sound?

Im using a piperx vis foam one and all it does is sound wooshy if you no what i mean, no rasp or grunt!

I had a k+n typhoon on my old corolla tsport and oh my god it made your ears bleed!! It did rev to 8250 though

I get a deep roar from the K&N on mine but with a wooshy sound too. I love it.

Wish the VRS revved to 8250...

My ek9 teg engined civic went to 9500

Vtec kicked in at 4.5k had 5k of vtec lol

na bailey one isnt squeeky at all, just a low tshhhhh.

i dont think a cone filter on a turbo engine would roar asmuch as a NA engine, just more of a sucky wooosh noise

i have the green cotton open cone induction kit but no carbonio or abd intake just in the engine bay like fred blokes nice filter would recomend it but i do need to sort out cold air feed to it or get someone to make me one up
