Hello Chris, The coupler is included in the kit. This was our mistake, we excluded it from the existing product photographs, however we can assure you that the coupler is part of the kit. Apologies for the confusion! Please don't hesitate to let us know if you have any further questions. Kind regards, - AJ, Forge Motorsport
Good morning, Thank you for getting in contact! It's not a case of the stock components not being good enough in general terms, but there are always improvements to be made. For those looking for a more fast road/track focused setup, there's often room for improvement over the OE setup - regardless of the platform. We hope this helps. - AJ, Forge Motorsport
Hello Mr Marz, Thank you so much for your comment. It's always a joy to hear feedback. Style is subjective, you may think it's ugly - but evidently many would disagree. We've gone into a considerable amount of detail regarding the benefits of fitting FMINDK47 across the various RU-vid videos covering it's development. You can find out more by clicking here: www.forgemotorsport.co.uk/Carbon_Fibre_Induction_Kit_for_Audi_RS3_8Y8V_RSQ3_F3_TTRS_8S--product--2323.html We have over 30 years top-flight motorsport engineering experience. We develop components for BTCC, WEC, Drift Masters, and Time Attack, to name just a few of the series that entrust us to provide the most effective possible performance solutions. The IATs are exponentially lower than that of the stock system. There are numerous variables to take into consideration, and we act on the data derived from various rigorous testing procedures. The data doesn't lie, therefore we're inclined to trust the data and the wealth of knowledge within our team of highly experienced motorsport engineers. That said, we thoroughly and wholeheartedly appreciate your feedback. Have a really great weekend, we hope it brings you joy. Best wishes, - AJ, Forge Motorsport
My professional opinion, as a mechanical engineer, is that "cold air" intake is trash. The stock one at least has ducting to the filter from the front of the car where it's drawing outside, actually cold, air. Drawing air from under the hood, heated by the engine and turbo and not ducted from the front of the car is counter productive. The turbo compression adds a ton more heat, which I guess is offset by the increased capacity of the larger intercooler. Power is roughly linearly proportional to the DENSITY of the combustion air, not boost pressure, density. Compression creates heat, reducing density...basic ideal gas law stuff.

Good morning, Thank you for your comment! We completely understand your concern, however we've been running similar configurations for a number of years and not encountered any issues in terms of difficulty removing, however in the event it was - we'll always be on-hand to assist! We hope this helps. Kind regards and best wishes, AJ, Forge Motorsport
Hello! 😎 Loving the excitement! We've just had word that it's scheduled for launch later on this month, we'll put out an announcement as soon as we have an exact date. We appreciate the message! Kind regards, - AJ, Forge Motorsport
Hello @rob6271, From our experience, there have been no issues regarding warranty. This is a bolt-on part, the engine management system remains unaltered. We'd advise checking with your local dealer, however from our personal experiences, and those of our existing customers, I feel confident stating that there are no negative ramifications. Kind regards, - AJ, Forge Motorsport
You missed the point of an actuator. The part itself doesn't increase performance. Adjustable actuators can be adjusted to let the tubo create more boost pressure, but that will need mapping to suit.
Hi Urra83, Yes, this car is equipped with our recently released FMDV47 Dump Valve for Swift and Vitara Hybrid. 😎 You can find a link to it here: www.forgemotorsport.co.uk/Suzuki_Swift_Sport_and_Vitara_Hybrid_14_BoosterJet_Dump_Valve--product--2299.html If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us. - AJ, Forge Motorsport
@@Urra83 no trouble at all, and thank you! 😎 There are definitely marginal performance improvements as a result of increased airflow and lower inlet air temperatures. The overall benefit in terms of sound, engine bay aesthetic and those marginal performance benefits make this a brilliant addition to the Swift Hybrid. - AJ, Forge Motorsport
Hello Eddie, I can confirm that it works with a stock map, and the OE MAF sensor with no issues whatsoever. We have plenty in stock available for immediate dispatch! 😎 Kind regards, - AJ, Forge Motorsport
Hello @@eddiemie4798, There is no element of the dump valve that should result in a stall, and we've had no other reports of this issue occuring. Please contact dev@forgemotorsport.co.uk at your earliest convenience, we're very keen to get to the bottom of what's happening. Kind regards, - AJ, Forge Motorsport
@@forgemotorsport Hello AJ, The dump valve simply vents too much air to atmosphere stalling the car. I have contacted forge and provided a video clip. No solution yet. Best, Eddie
Hello @@eddiemie4798, I've spoken to the Development Team, they'll check and progress the matter accordingly - they'll be in contact today. We've sold hundreds worldwide with no reported issues, so we're extremely keen to understand the situation. Kind regards and best wishes, - AJ, Forge Motorsport
I would love one of these to make a video on my other channel about it but they are just so expensive. I have the induction kit though and love it good stuff guys!
Hey NeonGlitchersHD, Thank you for the love! ✌ The manufacturing costs of our carbon fibre products are prohibitive when it comes to maintaining lower prices compared to more budget friendly alternatives. We use only prepreg 2x2 twill carbon fibre, formed in an autoclave using billet tooled moulds, and finished with an anti UV gloss gel coat. More costly, but the results are definitely worth it. 🤟 Great to hear you're loving the induction kit! 😎 Please feel free to drop us an email if you'd like any more information: media@forgemotorsport.co.uk. - AJ, Forge Motorsport
Hey! It's our good friend Jay (MustWeld Motorsport) - it's a turbocharged M50B25 powered MK1 Golf, running around 400HP! Here are his links: www.youtube.com/@jaymwm844 instagram.com/mustweldmotorsport www.tiktok.com/@mustweldmotorsport facebook.com/MustWeldMotorsport/ - AJ, Forge Motorsport
What if you running stg2 tune,about 18psi I been looking and every video shows the same 3 turns method,is this correct? I have the same wastegate with the blue spring
Hello, Which specific turbo actuator were you looking to purchase, and in which domestic market? Once we know, we'll be able to give you a better indicator of when it will be back in stock.🤟 Kind regards, AJ, Forge Motorsport
HI! We recommend when removing the carbon cover place your hand under the cover where the mounting grommet is located and pull upwards with a gentle and smooth action. Thanks! Zac - Forge UK
Bonjour, merci de nous avoir contactés ! Nous n'avons pas officiellement confirmé la compatibilité pour le 1.3 TCe, cependant, nous avons entendu dire que plusieurs clients ont réussi à adapter notre adaptateur de BOV FMSPMERC pour cette application, mais nous ne pouvons pas confirmer cela officiellement. Veuillez envoyer une photographie de votre compartiment moteur à dev@forgemotorsport.com, et nous examinerons la question plus en détail.
Hello, Thank you for getting in contact! We've submitted a request for this to be filmed and uploaded. In the meantime, please find detailed fitting instructions by following the link provided below: www.forgemotorsport.co.uk/CitroenPeugeotVauxhallOpel_12T_Atmospheric_Dump_Valve--product--2312.html Kind regards, - AJ, Forge Motorsport
Just came across this excellent video. Very well explained and filmed. I only have one question. What happened to the sensor removed from the crash bar? Did I miss something?
Hi @jaidumb, Thank you for your kind comment! 🤘 With FMINT27 in place, the temperature sensor pushes in and slides into the keyhole slot in the intercooler shroud. Further fitting instructions can be found on the product listing here: www.forgemotorsport.co.uk/Intercooler_for_the_Hyundai_i30N_Mk35_Facelift--product--2105.html Please don't hesitate to let us know if you have any further questions! Kind regards, AJ, Forge Motorsport
Hi Ashley, This would indeed be considered a cold air intake; it's design properties allow for lower IATs (Inlet Air Temperatures) and subsequently improved performance. We've experienced increases of up to 5HP with stock engine management software, with even higher gains likely on tuned vehicles. 🤟 If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Kind regards, AJ, Forge Motorsport
Hello, Thank you for reaching out! We haven't specifically tested this application previously, however if you email an image of your engine bay to dev@forgemotorsport.com, along with an accompanying message, we should be able to confirm this for you. 🤟 Kind regards, - AJ, Forge Motorsport
