Even though they don't inhibit your filter's location??

The carbon signal raptor would feed it some mad air too.

How is the filters being in that location going to work with the bumper on? (Assuming OEM bumper) won't they be somewhat stifled in that location and not get as much air?

A Zele or Stillen front clip would solve that problem.

We pulled the filters off completely on the dyno to see if we picked up or lost any power, however there was no difference. I am sure we can do some runs with the bumper on if there is a speculation that this is inflating results. Also the car did go 11.8 @ 124 (with the bumper on). That trap speed is a very good indication that the car is still making the stated power levels.

That said, Zele would be great, Stillen at least better than stock.

This whole filter talk about being restricted where they sit is a bit rediculous. I mean its not like you force air into the intakes. They create a vacuume. They dont really need that much space. Just as long as they are not sucking in hot air really is the only concern and where they are positioned they will not do that.

Look at the BP kit. He has just one filter on there in a crammed location. These two filters will be just fine.

Great input! If this was a NA application it would be much more crucial. What is more important is how straight of a shot it is from the filter to the turbo. Large bends combined with large distances can greatly restrict. In the case of our kit it is as close to a straight shot is it is going to get.

Thanks, Tony

He has a full amuse kit painted and ready to go.

Even though the amuse doesn't really have much venting into the side areas, that's still cool to have in your back pocket ready to go.

This thread just keeps getting better!! Some records will be broken very soon!

Perhaps I don't understand your concern then. But a better example is something like the stillen cai. It's box and positioning pretty much choke it out also but I dyno ran it with the hood open to free up any air and with it closed where its in a pretty tight cage. No difference.

The vacuum effect is weird. That's why when you are shop vacuuming something even extremely light you still have to almost touch it to get it to suck up.

I'm not trying to say you had a silly question. I'm just saying that to put it to rest as a question regarding the kits engineering.

I'm assuming you're talking about the Stillen Gen II Intakes, because the Gen III's are in front of the bumper, open to unobstructed air from below?

It was just a Thought... nothing more, it was something I was thinking about and just curious to see what Tony had to say considering I don't have the kit to test for myself.

Another dyno video for you guys

Sounds so sick,silky, smooth and rough all @ the same time.

Not sure about what's with the "in-depth" intake issue here. All The TT's that are designed this way seem to have the filters sticking out on the sides of the intercooler. If lets say, you tried to design some piping to get more air to the filters. I think the next worry would be hydrolock? Not to mention their would most likely be a much unneeded new curve in the pipe.
If airflow is that much of a concern? What has to be changed is not the intake designation... But the front fascia. The Stillen and Fujimura Body kits would quell airflow concerns.

Good shyt FI.

Nicely put! ^

Turbosmart E-Boost 2 "Boost Controller" is installed.

We added the Carbon Fiber overlay as an extra treat. It cleans up the aesthetics. Back to the dyno next Tuesday and the drag strip over the weekend.

Stay tuned...
