Default blitz carbon suction kit??

has anyone heard of this? wondering what type of gains people have seen from this.....if anything it looks really neat but for $700.00 it better be more than pretty.

I think that there is a reason that there are no installed pics floating around of one of these.

I also hear that the Blitz filters do not have very good filtration. Don't know how true that is.

Can you get pics of it installed?

I think this is just a "beautified" popcharger. It like the GruppeM intake system. I wouldnt pay it...

And about the Blitz filter not having good filtration, check this out: http://www.mkiv.com/techarticles/fil...t/2/index.html

I've got this. It replaced my 'standard' Blitz SUS.
The dry carbon tube isn't single piece moulded but its 3 pieces, joined together. Its already cracking, actually and totally not worth the money...

It looks very pretty but the heat shield lessens any induction noise and as with any air filter, the performance gains are minimal.

yeah, just like my gruppe m intake, it's very cool, but not worth the cash. But if you're addicted to carbon like i am, then you're stuck hehehe........
