Stealers¡¡ Audi Rs2 Airbox¡¡

[Rocco]

hi there friends¡

today´s mourning i went from the AUDI for ask and check how much it is the original RS2 airbox.

first, the people there did not knew what the **** it is a Audi RS2 , they thought about a possible racing version of the A2 series

second and after discovered what car it is, they said me that i would have to pay for this item 460€ + 16% IVA (spanish taxations) + the original air filter = more than 500€

after listen it.....i run away very fast , of course i did not ordered nothing...i felt myself very bad

it is a complete steal....


so guys... the poeple who bought it new...how much did you paid for it in your countries?? i think that these people are cheating me....

i have too many other better things to buy with more than 500€....for a sad RS2 airbox...

Dumb question.... I know I'm really good at these...

But what is SO special about an RS2 Airbox??

Does it not just ahve a bigger intake hole??

Or am I missing something...

Apart from a few brain cells....

It is just bigger overall, I think the chamber between the filter and the base of the box is bigger and where the MAF conects other than that I don't know much more. There is a few pics on here somewhere of a standard ABY and RS2 airbox side by side.

So is it just a simple bolt on? Nothing else needed..

What are the benifits of fitting one other than more cold air getting to the MAF..?

Bigger = Better

To fit an RS2 airbox to an ABY it is pretty much a direct swap, the only other part you need is the plastic panel with a bigger hole that slots in behind the headlight. It costs a few quid from a stealer so nothing much to worry about!
