seriously, I am shocked you would ask a private party for dyno proof! Shouldn't YOU be supplying the test results to back up your claims?
I'm even more surprised that a company would respond in this manner. That says a lot... without saying much.

I live in Johannesburg at altitude ~5500ft or ~1800m so I went for the Carbonio in the hope that I would be able to suck in more of the relatively thin air.
Unfortunately I was disappointed.

The graph which was done with help from vag-com shows the airflow over rpm. I did three separate runs all in third gear on the same stretch of road, once with the Carbonio CIA on and twice without, one under cooler temperatures ~18deg Celsius and once when it was a bit warmer ~28deg Celsius (IIRC).
Under all conditions the Carbonio actually showed lower, even if only slightly, air flow. It was especially worse at the top of the RPM range.

<b>less airflow = less power</b>

PS - My car was chipped and had a test pipe at the time.

if you put a big CARBONIO sticker on your windshield.

No intake mod required.

A+ post. Thank you.

Ecodetuning PWNED. Possibly larger carbonio=less velocity=less efficent?

it's not just ecodetuning. every other reseller and tuner make the same claims.

audiTLC

sorry, they got pwned

lowdef

again, they're not the only aw advertisers that make that claim.

I'm a transverse guy, I drive a MkV Gti. If I'm slow to reply then I apologize. I have to ask around to make sure my information is top notch and accurate before I post.
