To those who have put on the bigger SEAT intake hose from vagparts.com have you noticed an big difference in induction noise if any after installation?
Also if you have, are you pairing the hose with an aftermarket panel filter or stock filter?

You can hear a bit of sucking but the best noise is the louder spooling of the turbo

Get a pod filter for noise!

Kai,
I would love to go down the pod route, but that would mean id have to get a new smaller battery for it to fit and would be alot of extra expense.

You'd really need a box to enclose the pod in to get the most out of it as well. Otherwise it would just be sucking in the hot air from the engine bay.

You dont need a new battery to get a pod filter.
You need your own brain and 50 dollars.

Yes and check any legal issues as well before going ahead with it

Only needs to be secured in QLD.
Boxed and secured in NSW.

yeah, ive read you say that before... I would like to see it in writing from qld transport. But as most ppl who mod cars (like yourself) if they want to get you they can pick anything and having a pod filter is an obvious one to pick as its plain to see. Just my 2c.
Also as far as i know there have been tests showing pods arent the most effective way of getting more air to your engine, although they are generally the cheapest.
