Far out! That throttle response mod is the BEST! The lag/doughy responsiveness from the throttle is gone. The car feels like how my Golf R felt like after I got it reflashed with an aftermarket fuel map. The throttle response in the Arteon is now far FAR better. It actually feels more sporty rather than just this "glide you along" saloon.

Friend told me about this - remove the snow guard for better air intake (and a little more turbo noise).
Looks easy enough.

You'll need a T25 tool to undo the screws. The snow guard literally just lifts out. Pull it from the very edges gently. Don't pull it from the plastic sections in the middle - they break very easily (I broke one). It doesn't matter though as I don't plan on ever putting it back in. Not unless it starts snowing in Brisbane. LOLMy car: MY18 Arteon

Can you tell me where you go the mod-kit from or did you assemble it yourself- together with K&N plus snow baffle delete from the airbox, I'm keen on fitting this to my new arteon... cheers,Last edited by tigger73; 27-05-2018, 10:58 PM.

THANKS Blackpaladin67, Going on the hunt for those parts now... (post edit) goods arrived in 5 days from the UK.. (amazing)- all fitted in under 10min- subjectively, I feel it spools up a bit faster with less lag and quicker throttle response- I feel it was worthwhile and glad I did it- cheers again.
