Gruppe M CAI and AA exhaust Combo

tallycoolies · 12-06-2008, 08:09 PM

Finally got my Gruppe M from Wheelsto~ on Friday and installed today despite the weather..... it was so crappy. Anywayz~ just wanted to share my pics too how the AA exhaust and Gruppe M CAI will work. Couldn't really take the videos, planning to do so tomorrow if the weather gets better, hate east coast... Sorry for the horrible pics but will put some better ones tomorrow. I tried to rev up a little bit and it sounds.... WOW and the carbon fiber just adds Extraordinary sexiness~~ Thanks Wheelsto for a great intake system..^^ enjoy~
P.S. Photos of snowing and the winter tires which is Blizzak on stock 18's, are extra ^^

Forgot some pics...

MMMorish · 12-06-2008, 08:46 PM

Looks good! I would adjust the tips on the AA exhaust a bit furthur out though.

boostedtwin · 12-06-2008, 09:25 PM

Nice combo

MrHarris · 12-06-2008, 10:09 PM

Both of those look great. The tips do need to come out a bit to compensate for the diffuser.

Mischievous M · 12-06-2008, 11:14 PM

Kudos on the intake mate...

isn't it just heaven hearing the intake work? anyways, reckon you should clean up the engine bay. hehe... put up a video when you have time.

I'd love to compare how diff the AA is to my Vorsteiner Titanium / GRUPPE M combo.

have an awesome weekend with your new mods

+10000~ definitely will post some videos today~ Thanks for the compliment

tips definitely need to come out a bit. looks great though!

Omar@ActiveAutowerke · 12-07-2008, 12:07 PM

Looks good. Enjoy!

///M PWR 00 · 12-07-2008, 01:32 PM

Arent the AA tips adjustable? If yes, pull em out some more so they fit better with the diffuser. I cant wait to hear clips

tallycoolies · 12-07-2008, 02:59 PM

Did some video shoot today but the weather certainly didn't help at all. It was windy and like 30 degrees...

Videos didn't come out good at all .. sorry guys~ Definitely will shoot some better ones later on. The second video which was shot inside the car, I told my wife to capture straight out, and ended up shooting my little cell phone holder doll... ^^

The Gruppe M definitely adds the crips on accelerating, and sounds more pure?? Also finally figure out how to adjust the tips and I think this looks a bit better ~ ^^ Anywayz~ enjoy~

Awesome mods! Nice work. I have the AA exhaust also and it rocks.... and now your vids just gave me the itch for the gruppe M intake

I just need a little more convincing. So tell me, how much more significant is the induction noise from the driver's seat even with the windows up? I assume it sounds like a freaking race car with the windows down compared to stock.

Well the induction sound level does go up slightly but not very noticable on low RPMs. On high RPMs or on highways, you can actually hear the roar and gets louder even with the windows up. You can hear the engine going like.. WooOOOOT ^^ I really can't express the sound but sort of like deep mellow AA exhaust plus a deep throaty ROAR~ I'm definitely satisfied with the results. Hope this helps~

noxredna · 12-07-2008, 06:04 PM

tally! finally it came. good stuff man, it looks fantastic with the interlagos blue. The weather up here has been terrible - cold as hell.

We should do a meet again sometime soon, would love to check out your new boot lid and gruppe intake!

Hey~! yeap that's what I said when I saw ur post about the Gruppe M and Vorsteiner Exhaust.

hope the ECU gets there soon, u'll be amazed, the ECU did put some boost to my car. I want to video some of it but it's been snowing.. and brutally cold here. Hope the weather gets better~! Keep in touch~!

rossyb · 02-10-2009, 08:59 AM

does fitting this induction kit void your warrenty??

tallycoolies · 02-10-2009, 04:38 PM

I've already took it to my dealer after all my mods (except the x-pipe) but they didn't say anything about it. I guess they are cool about it unless u put something major, such as Turbo, supercharger etc. Or it might depend on ur SA or the dealer itself~! Hope this helped.
