Techart power flow

Does anyone have this kit installed? What are your impressions? Cost? Dyno results?

Power Flow kit as in their cold air intake (CAI) system or the TechArt PowerKit such as the V3 (headers, full exhaust + ECU tune)? If you are referring to the V3 PowerKit. I would consult FUHRIUS as he had the TechArt V3 kit on his vehicle.

As a point of interest, I have TechArt's cold air intake system + exhaust on my vehicle. If you have any questions in light of so. Pleae do not hesitate to ask.

Best

Thanks for the info. As you can tell I don't know much about either.

I was after just the CAI. I like to make one change at a time. Although in this case I am throwing the IPD plenum in there at the same time.

(The tune and headers would come later if they are significantly beneficial.)

How did you find the CAI to perform? Who sells it? I was not able to find it in the techart catalog. I am using the stock airbox

Certain that it is, Techart offers some excellent products. However, most of their components are actually manufactured for them by other companies throughout Europe. If your interested in an aftermarket high flow cold air intake, I would suggest looking at Evolution Motor Sports or Agency Power. As far as exhaust systems are concerned, I would check out FVD/Brombacher . Most of their exhausts are manufactured in Germany by M&M Exhaust . M&M are the big boys behind most of the high end European "tuners", and the quality and performance of their products is unsurpassed ..

Okay thanks JD I was thinking the "power flow" was some special intake manifold/plenum that I had not been previously aware of.
