Recently upgraded this part from OEM as a part of a total air intake upgrade. Much happier with this part than others from IE.

Thank the engineers at VW for the installation difficulties! part fit well / Fitment Rating: 5

This part does exactly what it was designed to. But if you are looking for some turbo noise you'll need to get the revs up to really notice any difference in sound. / Quality Rating: 5

The value to you is going to vary based on the reasons for your build. Noisey street car -- you'll be dissappointed. Performance Car -- Do it while your also working on the turbo inlet / Value Rating: 4

Very well made,looks great on turbo,fits nicely

I did not expect that much of a turbo noise difference. So worth for the experience. Its not annoying at all even at WOT.

It definitely does, as advertised, better turbo noise and spoil.

Install wasn’t that bad for me. I didn’t even remove the battery, but that was my experience. No issues. I have the iE CAI, turbo inlet pipe and now the muffler delete. I do notice an increase in throttle response and turbo sound without being annoying. Good quality part(s) paired with good costumer service goes a long way and iE has both in my opinion.
