    Ive ran a search but have not come up with the available answers maybe someone can help me.

    My polo is stock as a rock and Im looking to increase the sound of the sucking noise when the turbo kicks in around 2000-3000rpm.

    Will changing the stock filter to a K&N air filter change this significantly?

    eg. something like this: http://www.knfilters.com/search/prod...x?Prod=33-2830

    If not, how would i go about increasing this sucking noise without doing too many mods?

    thanks heaps guys

      I run a K&N panel filter as it has better airflow than standard, more responsiveness, it is noticable.

      Expensive but over the long run beneficial.

      I would personally forget about induction noise and fit a nice exhaust with extractors on and a panel filter replacement.

      This would sound much better than induction noise, plus better performance.

      More costly but if your going to do the job, do it right is my motto.

      Slightly off topic I know !
