Best air filter or cold air intake for Skoda RS

Guys please advise the best air filter / cold air intake kit for the Skoda RS. Also pls let me know what part no K& N advises for the RS.

I have fitted the K&N apollo cold air intake kit but i am not sure whether this is the right one.

Tips and suggestions are welcome.

The Carbonio Cold Air Intake imported by Pete's is by far the best intake system i have used on a RS. Works real good and easy installation too. I would really suggest a custom code ecu remap if youre looking to gain major performance.

I believe a Carbonio CAI was used here.

Carbonio CAI it was, with the lead pipe going all the way down.
I suppose you felt the power of those mods on shuvd's car.

The Carbonio CAI is the best piece of kit available. But, please be careful in water logged conditions!

Infractions: 0/1 (10)

hmmm well oh yeah exclusiveperformance.in
i think

met them at an auto expo few months back , they know knew what they are talking about , seem dedicated and hard working and most importantly in bombay they were in the process of hooking them selves up with a spanking workshop

yes they are here man , expensive but factory made certified "bolt on" performance - RS or rider 150 hp bumped to 232 hp
Bt the way audi Alfa and BMW state that the limit of performance for a front wheel drive is 225 hp unless your going drag spec which doesnt thrill me

PEter of pete s supposedly did a 300+ hp skoda in bombay, a friend a mumabi drag champ from 4 seasons ripped it said it was mind numbing ly
fast ::: get this 30PSI boost !!!!!

i dont believe it , even 8 psi boost can be made to look like 30 psi with clever vavle placement
on further digging i found out that there is a "rumour" that petes 300 hp skoda on a dyno did some 180 ish odd hp

i truly trust in MTM
i dont know pete and i mean absolutely no offense to him , i think his chief techies work is really nice at the least -from what i have heard

but i havent heard of anyone going MTM s way
and oh yeah there is an ad for MTM in one of the latest car mags tooo
