Is a CAI worth it? Probably not. At this price? Some would argue DEFINITELY not. Is the engine bay in a MK7 ugly? Oh yes. Now it looks divine. I love Unitronic's products, and this did not disappoint. I wish I could upload a picture to show how it completes the engine bay. Even the installer (an APR dealer) took a picture to send to his rep to tell him that they really need to up their design game. I'm pleased as punch. Now to get their downpipe, software, etc, etc... Thanks DAP!
