Is that vf intake 3" mate + do you mind me asking how much the intake was ?

Am no sure m8 would have to check, i got it from parts4euro.com in the USA bout 2month ago, thats me just gettin time to post up pics , it was one for 2.0t, i went for vf to be different from my m8,s witch use bsh, forge, and evoms, i welded on the pipe for the dv, mounting are all the same, works well with no probs, think u can buy one from vf witch fits on the the k04 now with no mods, but at the time they didnt have one for my car, so i made the 2.0t fit easy:icon_thumright: i just liked the way the vf fits and looks OEM and comes with a heatshield with fits spot on! an like others eg bsh
think it cost me bout £250 at the time??

Just an observation but isn't that intake tube rather long and thin ? Maybe its the camera ?
