The only bright side to it is when I drive in sport mode or manual mode the problem is almost non existant. Torque comes back on. Less noise too.

To those with the Neuspeed P-Flo, what are your thoughts on it?

I'm not sure if I have experienced any performance gains with the P-Flo. I don't think the noises are really that pronounced. I have a downpipe and hear that more and the DSG farts are more addictive. I want to disable to soundaktor(or remove it) to see if that makes a difference. Not as many turbo/intake noises as I thought there would be reading all the reviews.

You guys do realize a lot of open intakes do this... There is a minor loss of torque in the low range for more HP gains in the mid to upper range. Breathing more air has its turn ons and offs.
I for one did not "feel" the torque loss that everyone in this thread seems to feel.
As far as noise goes thats one of the whole designs of open air intakes are to be heard... if you want a quiet intake you need to buy a boxed one like APR or ECS etc.

normal Hesitation my dsg does it too. If pulling away slowly it does seem slow and not as smooth but after like a day i got used to it and know how to drive the car to not feel it...

Yep for sure. In normal drive mode, the car feels even slower then before I put the intake on. In sport/manual mode where the RPMs are always around 3k, it pulls like a mofo.

Just curious if people buy intakes for the GTI because of sound only? I keep hearing claims of HP and TQ increased, but that has been Myth Busted.
I can understand big builds maybe hitting a ceiling of flow but if your running a stock K03 or even a K04 are these really necessary?
Cool factor and Noise Factor aside...
Do they really do anything? Butt dyno does not count. haha

Remove your hood insulation. I almost dislike how loud mine is. It sucks like a vacuum at low RPMs and when the car starts to pull in the upper range you can hear the blowoff flutter through the DV even with the windows shut.

Intake won't do much if you're stock but really benefit a tune. More air for the tuned power gains
