Alfa Romeo Forum - View Single Post - GTA intake Mod ON TS

alphaTS56 · 16-05-2008

I thought the noise diff was minimal from inside and i must say i thought it would be louder but when my partner did a hard accel driveby i was well impressed and surprised it was louder... well more so kind of gruntier noise then full loudness.

i have standard filter but i took out the cone in the filter centre.

and it just feels so good to be able to do these small things to your car yourself.

Have you got the standard paper filter, or a high flow K&N type etc?

It has to be a good value mod though, and it lets the engine take in colder air without the hassle of road dirt/water getting into the intake, which you get from bumper mounted cold air feeds.
