Re: INTAKE

Sounds like your local store carries the Euro Sport Cool Flo.  I've got it 
on my Jetta, and it really works well.  It's the heat shield that makes this 
kit so effective.  The sound on full throttle is amazing, and it makes for a 
big difference in throttle response.  A buddy of mine got 3hp more out of 
the cone filter than with a K&N and a cut out airbox on the dyno, so it 
definitely is working.
As for low end torque, the only way to get major amounts is to get the 
Schrick VG manifold or bore out your motor.  Most other mods just add mid to 
top end power and shift the torque curve up accordingly.
