I'm running the Injen Intake on my 3.0t. ive seen folks post good experiences with others. Is it worth changing out?

I had the Injet on my A7 3.0T and loved the freedom it gave the superchargers to breath, and sound. I would keep it.

The other market options are pretty much more of the same with the exception of the AWE S-Flo, and Ive just changed My AWE out to a RocEuro on my S7. Enough said

jk,

Why the exception to AWE S-Flo? Considering options for a S7...

TBH I was pretty underwhelmed with the S-Flo. It struck me as all show and very little go.

Don't get me wrong, it looks very pretty in carbon, but dynamically, its pretty much just felt and sounded like the stock airbox, and takes up the same physical space. The only difference is it has a high flow filter fitted. You want a high flow filter, buy a K&N and save yourself $900 in the process. Outwardly, I couldn't tell the difference between having the K&N fitted or having the full AWE fitted. There is very little sound benefit. It sounds stock.

Then I discovered Roc-Europe (let the flaming commence....) It took a while to ship (search the forum if you need some background) but WOW it has completely transformed the car, and it now sounds like it should of when leaving the factory. It positively roars and the twin turbo's just sing when you hit the gas. Of course it looks the business as well

I dont know anyone (?) who has purchased and dynode before and after results, but I love it, and most of the guys who have purchased the Roc-E's for their S6/7's (and a few RS7's) are loving it as well.....

If you want another intake option - there is a relatively new entrant - REVO - These guys use the stock RS6/7 airbox as the basis for their kit. Course you could always buy their filter and drill your existing S7 box to let more air in, but wheres the fun in that. Heres a link to the Revo guys - Im not sure about US distribution, but you can see what they are offering. http://www.revotechnik.com/product-d...-intake-system
