    Acoustic Valve does what?

    Those were my thoughts precisely. An sealed induction kit is not worth the cost for the gains if any. Incidentally, I had an open induction kit when I bought the car, and is slower than with the standard airbox, even before modification. I did get a lot of induction roar, but thats not what...

In between then an now had an Audi A4 1.8T Quattro and a BMW325i but needed something smaller and a little cheaper to run and of course to have...
