Bsr intake - worth it?

[tsteez]

I just recently got my A4 and looking to buy a new intake. I've read the threads for the evom and the carbino, i was looking to purchase one of those. However, as i was looking around i came across ESE tuning website and they had a BSR Opti-Flow Filter System. Is this anything compared to the other 2 intakes? And worth the $200? Any help appreciated. Thanks

are you asking is it worth the money for an intake? No intake is worth the money. I have carbonio and non of the intakes you are looking at is going to be "worth" it.

If you are wanting the sound and thats it, then any will do that, but if you are looking for performance, don't even think about spending money for it...

yeah dude our cars do not benefit much if at all from intakes. most just buy a k&n drop in

[GypsySmash]

imo,
the best intake that you can buy is a cone filter with Blinktek heat shield.

Asked and answered. These guys have it covered.

thanks for responding quick, and yea its for noise i know it doesn't do anything for performance (hoping to get revo chip soon). But i posted it meaning does anyone have the BSR intake or even heard of it.

[SEXICÄN]

thats what i'm here for!

Don't know about that one in particular but if you are just going for the sound you can save a few bucks by fabricating your own. Here are a couple of ideas if you are interested. There are a bunch of other threads out there too. Good luck.

KN filter 034 TIH call it a day. Unless you really want that sound bad, then get drop some cash on carbonio.

I have the BSR Opti-flow with heat shield in my car. Sounds lovely! =)

(BSR are from Sweden btw, but I imagine the filter itself is not manufactured here)

I cannot believe that this thing will draw cold air from somewhere.Try this and you can understand why.Open the bonnet after some good sprints with your car and place your hand 30 centimetres above the turbo.You can fry eggs! I have a drop in free flow filter and the next mod that I will do is the hole on the airbox and the plastic fender inside. Free and soundable!Also gives something in terms of gains!

BSR makes some nice Saab stuff

[colt45]

I have never heard of BSR before.

[jmars]

Google them and check out Saab forums.....they make a nice product but I know nothing about their Audi products

[SEXICÄN]

So your saying it's like buying Dinan for our Audi

[SweS4]

I have never heard of BSR before.

Bsr is from Sweden and work together with koenigsegg.
I have the filter and heatshield in my and works great.
They dont produce the filter by themselfs, just the heatshield.
Filters are made by JR.

Here is a link of bsr and koenigseggs work together:

most just buy a k&n drop in

I just put a K&N drop-in and felt it made a nice difference for $50 but I also have supporting mods like a reflash and HFC.

Soo MUCH INFO. much appreciated! i just figured it's cheaper than the other two options, and ill have pictures up this weekend, got the car last week and couldn't be happier

What?!?! Hole in the airbox? plastic fender? Can you explain this.

[jimrobbington]

There is a premade hole in the fender near the airbox, he must be planning on cutting a hole in the airbox to acually pull air in thru the fender?

[redlabel81]

Oh really...Never seen it or heard of anyone that did this. Have you?

WOW, it's a good deal cheaper than the other intakes!!!!! Nice find! I got my AEM on sale, and it wasn't that inexpensive.......
