I find it good mate, its expensive for what it is but if you are a bit of a carbon ***** then its all worth it..

I read the threads on the intake but bought one anyway, when it came i checked the inner bore and mine was smooth and nicely finished i guess each one is different.

Seems like a good enough piece of kit, the finish is very durable, i cleaned the engine bay for the first time in ages and it came up like new with a bit of wax on it.

I honestly don't know if it made any difference noise wise or performance wise. It won't make it boomy. With it and a cat back ragazzon exhaust its not a loud car even when at WOT above 6k rpm, all you hear is the truly beautiful sound that emanates from an Alfa V6 and thats definitely not intrusive in any way.
