Yes. It looks like its's been chopped down and fettled so they can fit hosing to connect to what could be an ST170 plastic inlet part.

I hope they beaded the ends of the GTIR inlet otherwise it could pop off.

The idea of the thrash is to be fastest, no matter what boost is run etc or else whats the point in going ?, im not knocking the car just that it wasnt that fast imo for the spec ,turn the boost up and let it AVE it then .
