I was wondering what reputable cold air intakes there were out there for a 2000 1.8t?

I would say this is in the right place tbh.

However just change out your panel filter for a decent one and you're good.

If you want a proper cold air intake thn you'll have to design you own. Most top in the engine bay rendering their purpose null and void.

Hi, welcome to the Org.

IMO, there's no need for a cold air intake on a turbo. Incoming air is heated by the turbo and sent to the intercooler, on to the engine. Heat soak on the stock intercooler is where we suffer.

Upgrades are out there. Not HP gains, but hold your own over lots of hard runs.

Worth it if you have the need.

Good luck
