Jake Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 What do you mean by 'air intake'? They were all made with two air-feeds into the single airfilter box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R Black Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 I've seen a couple of big twins with two air intakes, but by a couple i really mean 2, there is generally only one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suprasteve Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 how come some tt's have only one air intake and some have two?????????/:sos: all have 2 but some people replace one with a polished pipe and keep the other black plastic which makes it look like theres only one. see attached (mine) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobSheffield Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 the first pic is of a car with upgraded HKS/Blitz/Apexi turbochargers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
go4longer Posted March 10, 2007 Author Share Posted March 10, 2007 arr i see so if you upgrade the turbos you need to upgrade the air flow too them ie individual intakes (would i be right in my thinking) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 arr i see so if you upgrade the turbos you need to upgrade the air flow too them ie individual intakes (would i be right in my thinking) Changing the turbo's over to a "big twin" system is a massive upgrade (£8k+), everything (and I really mean everything) on that side of the engine is changed. Its a fundamentally different system to the stock TT. Very, very few people go for a big twin upgrade, most go for a single turbo, its cheaper and will in general be more suited to road use.

Class One Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 No. not unless you have a friendly tester. You'll need at least one of the cats left in/replaced to pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suprasteve Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 No. not unless you have a friendly tester. You'll need at least one of the cats left in/replaced to pass. My car passed the emissions test with no cats in but i think i was very lucky. A new o2 sensor and clean air filter will also help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
