How do you like your TAP intake so far? Is every intake just about the same?

Default I had to modify it a little, but I love the sound.

Everyone here will tell you it doesn't make any power. probably true, can't tell the difference.

But I had to put a bigger cone (TAP one was minuscule), and I added a heat shield so it wouldn't suck in as much hot air.

Get the cheapest (in price) intake you can find, if you want it for the sound..

regards,
Liam

Default Re:Installed lltek Intake - HOT air is n/g... :-(

I installed an lltek intake a in October. It ran great all winter, sounded very nice. I removed it, though as soon as the temp hit 80 in April in NYC.
The car was breathing HOT air - not good for the turbo. Unless you have a true cold air system, one that gets air from the outside of the car , NOT the air in the engine bay, the intake you are considering is worthless.
Of course, if you instsis on buying one, you can buy mine cheep.
