Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before.
We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

It might be worth measuring the pressure drop as was done on the last Polo...
I can see what you are saying and that the flow looks restricted, but if you test it you may see that the intake is not overly restrictive and that cash could go elsewhere...
From memory, it was the MAF that posed the biggest restriction in the last Polo GTI.
