        The Seat intake (PD160). I bought it from a spanish website another member recommended, however it took a good 6 weeks to get to Melbourne. The difference in intake size is night and day, it was hard to believe the car even managed to suck in any air with the old hose and trumpet.

          I have been wondering if it's possible to fabricate something ourselves, modelled of the PD160. Perhaps with fibre glass, but would need to get my hands on an intake to replicate it. I'm currently over committed with work and uni, so very time poor to do it myself within a reasonable time frame. But I think if I can have a good look at one, get the measurements, etc, should be able to work something out, or at the least see if i'm even capable of it.

              Stainless will transfer heat, if you get a pod filter, can go a different route.

              PD160 is not cheap for a bit of plastic, but likely cheaper than fabricating something.

                  my PD160 intake might be for sale in a month (assuming i like my new job, drop the price of the car and sell it on), so keep your eyes peeled as i will post it in the for sale section once ive sold the car on.

                      Maybe PM Jmac from the forums. I got mine from him. Bit of a wait though as he would have to order it from SEAT o/s i believe.

                        Was thinking about upgrading also, but was too slow to get last one from dubaddiction. Found a couple of UK sites that stock them, here's one if you're interested:

                          Got mine from JMAC. Hopefully he can help.

                          Is that a painted engine cover?

                          How/where did you get it done?

                              i have got one from a friend that had one laying around, never used it
                              got 2 flexpipes installed at the place where the seat intake should be because i got open cone filter.
