Default Amuse Intake Pipe

after 4,5 months finally my Amuse intake pipe arrived on monday at my door (donīt ask why it took soooo long...itīs a secret). the pipe looks jsut awesome and is even lighter then to stock plastic tube .quality is also very good.

installed the pipe today.after about 45 min. (with cleaning the engine bay) it was done.looks 10 points out of 10. functionality 0
i run the intake pipe with the stock air filter system (as you could see) but iīm planing on buying the Gruppe-M air box(maybe christmas).any suggestions on that??

and here are some poor mobile pics.

im not trying to bash ok. But im sure u paid way to much 4 that and IMHO i dont like it. It looks ok but not really when the end of it is a stock air box which i know is the best supposibly im just saying........ Buy a nice filter for the end to make it look like it belongs there. The stock air box just makes it fugly

The reason you're not quiet sure is because there's no such thing. You MAY be 'not quite sure'. Maybe.

Gruppe-M airbox? Another $$$$$$ part for little or no or negative gains. More power to ya(not really lol), someone needs to keep them in business I guess.

No, some of us just don't see the point in spending a ton of money on something that doesn't do anything for you.

It probably doesnt do anything for performance really, but looks way better than the black plastic
