We should add this to the downloads section. The equivalent one for the V6 bi-turbo is there on the B5 downlaods. Not sure how to do that?

Was also thinking it makes a good sticky at the top of the forum.

lol 420bhp it suggests in there..?

Also, quite interestingly, it says about the 'power flap'..

To ensure a sufficient supply of air to the engine at high
RPM, the power flap in the air filter is opened at engine
speeds higher than 5000 RPM and at road speeds higher
than 200 kph.

Is this going to cause issues on a rolling road... ?

420PS not 420bhp.

1PS = 0.98631997bhp

Badly written by someone who doesn't know the difference then...

Mmmm, reading that has got me thinking. Would there be any gains in isolating the intake power flap, in a similar way to the exhaust flap mod? Might make for a tastier intake roar.
