I'm about the same age and agree, lol.
I'm thinking Kev never never had or heard an open intake on a MK7.
Back when I was in high school, about a million years ago, this was a "thing" on domestics - remove the air cleaner cover and turn it upside-down and replace. Boom, a gap of about ½ inch created all-around, creating those high-speed gasping sounds that chicks dig. Affectionately known as the "Tijuana High-rise". At least it didn't cost one red cent. The prices on some of these ridiculous aftermarket intakes nowadays are breathtaking. Same exact result.
