Another intake thread.

[gs86]

I'm currently running the pikey r600 airbox mod (snow grate removed, air scoop blanking plate, and intake side of scoop opened up, with an mst turbo elbow and intake pipe). 

I've always said I didn't want or need an aftermarket intake but it seems now I do 🤣. 

I'm torn between the Racingline r600 and the Forge carbon fibre.

Going purely based off looks I'm leaning heavily towards Forge. 

I've seen several flow tests that show the Forge flows slightly better than the R600.

 

Anybody had either or both and care to sway me one way or the other?

R600 is a beautifully made piece of kit with a huge filter !! A loads for sale on fb marketplace. Filter easy clean and reasonably cheap to replace if needed.

I'm considering the r600 and maybe just get the lid Hydro dipped. I aren't paying over £300 just for a carbon lid 🤣

Yep that’d look ace mate. Match that with your engine cover dipped too
