I am loving my intake! It has reduced my turbo lag, sharpened up throttle response, and opened the top end so that the Beetle now pulls all the way to redline. As a person who all of their performance cars before this one were powered by VTEC, these changes are essential. And I couldn’t be happier!

What are the details on that intake? It looks nifty and if it’s what I’m thinking 500madness has a similar one for the Abarth

Have you raced that legendary Mustang GT-R edition yet? He’s got some serious VTAK too.

It’s originally a Forge piece that was rebranded to look proprietary for USP. Since the TSI3 already has a metal piece on the intake portion that feeds into the turbo, mine just had the one aluminum tubing that goes to that, the carbon fibre over filter canister that you see in the picture, and the ram air piece. The ram air piece looks like the attachment you use on the vacuum to do the steps, and connect right to the back of the intake screen in the front of the car.

Not yet. We’re waiting until Race Wars for that. We’re racing for pinks.

You got one yet? I know you have the tune, and that’s my next step, along with some decent tires.

You know, with that intake, you're halfway to a 911.
