I have heard awesome things about the 034 Motorsports units. I have the opportunity to purchase the X34 (carbon fiber one) at a great price. Does anyone have some first hand experience with that setup?

The autotech intake is great. I have had APR, injen hot air, and now autotech.....The autotech unit feels as good as the apr did for a fraction of the cost. Somebody dynod their car on stock tune and the autotech made something like 8whp more than stock in hotter weather......

Be careful with the SAI on the Autotech. Mine broke and I've seen another user with the same issue on the facebook international group:

I had the same thing happen on mine. The metal plug is molded into the intake incorrectly. I pushed it back through so it was correctly half in half out, and used plastic weld to glue it into place and seal the air gaps. I can post pics later.

I've always thought that the CTS Turbo intake for the 8v S3, MK7 R and MK7 GTi were cross compatible but I was looking through the CTS site and actually saw that part number CTS-IT-270 is for the GTi/Golf R/Golf and CTS-IT-270-A is for the A3/S3. Does anyone know the difference between the part numbers?

Those coolant spills!! Correct me if it's not. But mine was like that when I had the I.E. CF on. Haha! That hole on the left hand side will bring in a lot of small stones!

Don't know for certain, but likely for the SAI hose. North American GTIs have the SAI, but the R and S3 do not.

Yeah lol that was it. That coolant was a pain. Small stones?! Hark?! lol I hope not

Have you noticed a difference? The reason they don't come cut from the factory is so that dirt, water and debris don't get into the filter as much, prolonging the life of the filter.
Yea i collected some dirt and stones near the engine cover after awhile. Took it off and might prolly go AMS or ECS next time round as they cover up the entire front. Sad though because im all for IE products.

I didn't even know AMS made an intake for our car? It looks pretty cool. Have you considered the Forge intake?
