I forgot how loud a intake made the car
I just installed a Buschur Maf Pipe and Filter kit along with the Mini Battery and tray. The install time took 1hr30 approx. and all of the parts worked and fit just like they should. Kudos to Buschur for making great parts and shipping them quickly.
When I fired up the car and took it for a quick spin I had forgotten how much louder the turbo spooling was and how loud the BOV became with just a K/N stuck in the end of the MAF. It's a whole hell of alot louder.

question: when you added the maf pipe, was there anything that you need to do to the ecu? or it just as simple as bolting it on and just resetting the ecu (disconnecting the battery)?

That's what they say, but I'm going to Buschur's in 3 weeks for a TBE, Cams, and flash, so I'm not super concerned.
Buschur's site says you gian 4rwhp with the filter, so the amount is negligible, but it is alot louder. People want the VTA for the sound!! This is loud enough for me.

oh ya it sounds real good after the intake. its definitly louder then u would think, but the spool up sounds awesome.
ive heard that the air to fuel ratio's get a little messed up with an aftermarket intake and no tune, but u should be alright and after the tune the car will be a blast to drive. buschur definitly makes good stuff.

Yea I have the hks rs intake and love the sound of the turbo whistling. People who go for rides are always like what is that sound, it sounds like a plain or something.

Ive had both the HKS style intake and the K&N cone filter (on stock rubber inlet) on my car. the K&N is sooooo much louder than the HKS type filter. Car sounds like a jet, its unreal.
