Why do i hate standard air box`s so much, when i put mine on i feel my turbo`s not spooling up the same, i need the whole turbo build up noise plus the chatter, air box`s stink kev, get a big ass filter on there, f*ck the hot air
P.S let me no if cutting it is any good, i`ve still got that pile of sh*it in the hut and i`ll get great joy cutting the f*cker

Drilled my airbox out on my A4 and my FRST before changing to a T3. Always worked well fro me. I have been told by a user on a VAG forumn that it doesn't work at all and he threw all sorts of technical arguements at it as to why it didn't/couldn't work.

Don't know yet
I cut my finger doing it and now I'm watching tv
I'll find out tomorrow. I was looking for more noise really without an induction kit because I like the standard look.
