What did you do to your N today ?

I’m very interested in getting this I take pipe/adapter, do you know what other aftermarket intakes work with it apart from ITG thanks!

Couldn't tell you exactly but any intake that would replace the standard airbox but could still utilise the OEM intake pipe would work.

The Turbozentrum is designed to fit the standard airbox and the ITG is designed to fit the standard intake pipe. Perfect marriage!
 
Ah

Fits perfect, very pleased.

Was it difficult replacing the turbo inlet adaptor with the included turbozentrum one?
Is airflow better or worse than stock airbox - isn't it facing away from the stock air duct?
Would airflow be better with say, a velossa big mouth (or an excuse to get one hehe) or would it be useless because of where the ITG sucks air from?
I heard that semi-closed filters make the artificial 'sututu' noise more audible, is this true with this setup!?
And lastly (sorry) did you just rotate the filter and put an N sticker on it? If so, I may have to 'borrow' that idea if I can't buy it like that, love it!

Not really, all turbo inlet adapters fit the same. Its fiddly but with the correct tools not bad.
There is a little cheat (just the order you do the screws basically) when fitting these which makes it easier. The good thing about the turbozentrum one is that is doesn't re-use the OEM metal gasket, makes things way simpler.

Dunno, a couple of us have the ITG fitted and we both think the car pulls harder. The ITG inlet is at the headlight area and it must get its air from somewhere lol.

Not really but I do have one installed anyway as I had fitted previously when I ran the stock airbox. It certainly can't hurt but I wouldn't buy one purposely for an ITG Maxogen.

Its certainly audible, think Darth Vader with a chest infection!

My ITG was purchased used and the ITG sticker was half missing. Ripped it all off and stuck an N sticker on that I had laying around. Its copyrighted and you must pay me a fantastic amount of money to copy it. Thanks, :p

Here you go @FlappyPants321 see answers in quoted text above.....
Its £5 per question so thats £25 you owe me! 😁:p

Process of replacement and install? Wiring, air bag function etc?
Its exactly what I expected after chatting with other VN owners in South Korea. Airbag is plug and play, seat rails and position are the same. Only thing that needed to be done was wiring the N lights to function. Should post a separate thread with regards to the seats in the future.
 
I'm now waiting for my i30n dct and I would love to have that red line on the sides aswell. How do you put it? Is it a totally new skirt or just a red line applied?

The diffuser looks sick 😍

Thanks!

The red stripe is just a vinyl stripe I got off of ebay:

It's been on for about 3 months now.
 
Cleaned the engine bay for the first time in ages 🙃

Awesome! You made a few pics of the install by any chance?
Of course! Given that no one has yet to show the install in detail. Here are a few pics.

A couple of important things to note when doing this install:
  • You’ll need to reuse the lockout spring for the new reverse lockout ring that Boomba racing provides as they do not include the spring.
  • This install requires the removal of the entire reverse lockout assembly thats from your existing gear boot in order to fit the reverse lockout made by Boomba Racing.
  • When you combine the short shift lever with the short shift adapter plate made by Boomba. The shift movement will be reduced by over 50%. Since I have both installed, most of the shifting issues have been absent.
  • As shown in one of the pictures, a Dremel is required to cut off the clip that holds on the pin in place. However, Boomba provides you a new one after you installed the shift lever so take your time when cutting. I managed to pry the original clip as far from the plastic base as much as possible in order for the Dremel tool to only cut the clip and nothing else.

Guys I have a question for those who have experience with Gruppenzwang. I have ordered the exhaust tips for my i30n on their website. How long have you been waiting to receive them? I have ordered and payed already in the middle of January (half a year ago). Since then I have not received the product and also I am not able to get in touch with Gruppenzwang. No replies on emails or telephone calls. Weird... 🤔
