Looks like the HKS filter on a single turbo. There was a link to a filter test a while ago, the HKS scored really poor.

I think thats HKS judging from the color. All intakes are basically the same.Differences are usually only in 4-5 degrees of each other.Save your money and put on some K&N filters and leave it at that.
P.S. Search button is in the top left corner use it. The whole intake discussion has probably been had a million times already.

I tried to search abit but didnt come up with much and was looking in a few different sites but didnt see a whole lot. I was wondering how you can tell if its a single or a twin turbo just by looking at the engine bay?
I tried looking at pics with twin and single but couldnt really tell.

It's fairly obvious.If you see the open filter like that or can see the turbo then It's obviously not stock. The stock turbos use the stock plumbing," y" pipe etc. Anything else and youget different pipes. I don't know how you couldn't tell just by looking at it. I guess your just getting started with Fds huh? Stick with it.

all intakes are not the same......I think you are in your state of confusion...that avatar gets me from time to time

anyways back to the subject..That's a HKS filter....does not flow worth a damn and worse then that...filter likes crap also.
