[quote][i]Originally posted by Steve[/i] There is some quite educated people replying in here and I am quite surprised that in 2011, some of the frankly uneducated replies that we are getting in here. This rubbish is on par with people on Puma forums having there throttle body smoothed with a dremel the raving about how there cars pull better top end blah blah, ridiculous. I genuinely thought CS have a bit of level headedness above this. Nobody has any proof of gains done by just modding the inlet, so far I have seen some state (again I giving the benefit of the doubt here because we havent even seen before nad after graphs), of, around 8bhp increases, following this mod AND a remap. Now it seems pretty logical to me that an 8bhp gain seems reasonable from just a remap alone, I know that my 106gti gained 7bhp from just a piggyback ecu dastek system. Yet we have people saying yes its worthwhile to spend 200 quid on something that is untested, and IMO will make no noticable difference...Infact we even have Butler that has had just the inlet done state, theres no noticable gains as such. My comment about doing it yourself wasnt to suggest he actually goes and does it himself, it was more that IF you can do it yourself, then it would be worth doing as Lee said it wont do any harm and also wont cost you anything. People saying they have had it done and notice a difference, lets not forget how convinced people were open cone filters made to cars when they were kicking around year ago. Show me a rolling road of a car JUST having the inlet modded and after and I may change my mind, again im quite happy to be wrong, but i'd be fairly surprised if there were any noticable gains. That is my input on this thread, if anyone cannot grasp what I have just said then im not going to credit you with a further reply, its quite straight forward really.
