    I like it for the 1.6, thestock crossover is suspect to cracking and leaking. The volume of the chamber should add a little more torque. It smoothed out the mid range a little, judging from the sensitivity of my smooth, muscular, shiny posterior.

    been turbo'd twice, supercharged once on this same engine and car.

    with the head work I have done, the MS and other mods for response, it really is a lot of fun on the track. definitely less problematic than f/i.

    I have the ARC chamber for the 1.8, It's attached to the stock AFM and a K&N cone filter. Love how it sounds, and it seemed to give me a few hp if any (butt dyno?) I got it for really cheap so I can't complain. Eventually I wanna change my filter for an Apexi filter which I've read does a really good job.

    My 1.8 so far:

    ITG Maxogen CF intake:



    The original plan was to run a Randall cowl intake with a ARC Magic chamber, but there were some fitment issues and i was really reluctant to cut the firewall for an intake than runs a circle round the engine.
    The ITG performs well so far, it is an improvement over the stock setup regarding intake temps and responsiveness. I tested a JR intake before and the ITG is better in many ways.

    Tried a video once but you really only notice under full load...


    Might try a setup where the air is picked up in front of the radiator in the future.
