I run a ramair(stop thinking that pittuf :P;) ) the sound is great and it did make 193 at the last rr with the ramair but ultimately it all comes down to how the car drives on the road, the car felt flat above 4000rpm and didn?t feel like 193 to be honest....if it sound your after then go for it but if you have expectation of your vr going faster you maybe disappointed!

NOt really speed i was goin for i do like the sound of ( dare i say it on here) the sucking sound but also thought about economics to such as fuel consumption. Especially as the bloody bastards r putting up prices! wankers

newbie you wont hear the sucking sound on any filter on a NA car. The only car i heard the sucking of air on was my RS turbo. But on the plus side get a ramair and it'll growl like feck ! (bmc's are better and you can pipe a cold air feed right to it, but very expensive and not as loud.)
