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,

    Does this work on the GTI? or will it not have enough heat shielding to be any good?

    I think the most important problem is there is no room to get a lot of cold air to the air intake rather then heat shield problem....

        Still wondering around this problem...

        I have got a 1.5 yaris before and with the cai around the fog light, i got 122g/s air going though, but apprantly other guys here with seat intake and K n N with chop only managed to get 133g/s (correct me if i remember wrong!)

        And the yaris is not turbo charged and dun have other mods to it...

        I also trying to fit or souce some sort of high flow intake system, but without sucess yet...

        I will let u know if i made any progress....

          By using a smaller Odyssey battery which is about half the size of the stock item.

            Just remember... a golf IV has it's intake in the same position as ours, hence there would be no direct cold air feed in it's intended application.. You would need to check the mounting points are the same

            We did some testing on my old excel and found the best place to position a filter (or cold air intake) was directly behind the headlight as there is heaps of cold air available there..

            Maybe it's a case of installing a shielded pod filter such as this (with foam stripping on the top to seal against the bonnet) then run ~3" flexible piping from behdin the headlight into the shielded filter enclosure. An extra hold would need to be cut into the shild in order for this to work.
