Has anyone tried this intake system?

it would be awesome to actually be able to hear the turbo making some noise :-D. I dream of the day someone would let us tune this 2.0L turbo but i know its only in my dreams. I would settle for some acoustic love from the aftermarket community. I think i stumbled on a thread somewhere this same company was working on a tune for this car also... Fingers crossed.

I just found out they aren't selling in California because it's not CARB legal.. But still that should be up to us if we decide to run this in our "competition racing vehicles". I'm going to see if my cousin from Arizona can snag me one.

I hope you can get your hands on one and let us know how the intake performs. I would love to just hear some gnarly turbo spool.

I've inquired about this before , and I'm wondering the same haha, I really want to hear my turbo but i haven't pulled the trigger yet, should i just do it and report back on it for the forum? i live in fl so theres like no violations here lol

Someone on the 3is forums has it and it sounds pretty good to me! You can hear the turbo way better than stock.

I mean its a pretty cheap upgrade for that cool sound.

BMS is well known in the BMW industry too.

The only reason i have not bought it already is I kinda would rather a complete Intake solution vs just a filter but maybe this is all we get

I just purchased and installed this and it is loud. I will get photos up eventually. Quick install, good quality stuff. Don't really feel a power difference, but I think they claim 7hp.

If it sounds great I think I have to pull the trigger and buy it!!! I wasnt really looking for power gains as much as I just want some sound out of my turbo.

Don't worry guys.

Meraki Autoworks will be dropping off their shop RC200 for development of an Injen intake!

I'll try to get a video of some kind posted eventually. Really happy with the intake. It's pretty loud and I can see some people not liking it, however.

Fitment is good. Bracket feels solid. Not much else to report, I'm happy with my purchase.
