Loud Im goin to fit my bmc this week but what im looking to know is did u have any difficulty puttin it in? Also did u use the original air vent np or did u have to modify it in anyway?

na it's well easy!
i used the original feed but it was too quiet due to it being restrictive so i removed the part with the back pressure valve. Now I think it could possibly be getting too much air as it's a bit laggy at certain revs in some gears so I might have to modify it so less air gets in. A car with less power would suffer from this more greatly so you might have to watch for that

I try not to read this thread as it makes me want your wheels more every time i see them!
A gti is 70mm if i remember rightly, dunno if a valver is different. Saying that didnt someone say a bmc kit is the same? I got a spare blue samco 90degree hose in exact right fit to bmc if your interested...!
