Worth $50!
Fits mk7 GTi with ihi20. It fits very snug in the housing you need to use lube on the oring to get it to slide into the turbo housing. Throttle response is better, exhaust note is deeper(I have a Down pipe already). More blow off spacer noise and a cleaner crisper bov sound now. Not much spool noise increase if any. Install wasn't awful. Didn't remove battery. Just top of OEM airbox lid. Use a 7mm wrench to get hose clamp off by vacuum pump. Use a 5mm ball socket Allen tool and take your time.

Perfect fit
I honestly didn't expect much for the price but was pleasantly surprised with a very nice piece that came with new gaskets and fit absolutely perfect. Don't hesitate to buy!Only negative was there were no installation instructions included, but a quick online search pulled up plenty of videos.

Fits fine and works, but is it worth it?
I just finished this mod and it took me about 2 hours since I took my battery and tray out to give me more room to work. I also didn't think the bolt holes for this new turbo muffler were lining up correctly, so that took me another 15 minutes to verify. I ended up leaving about a 3mm gap between the turbo housing and the flange to the muffler delete to start the bolts, and then tightened them down once all 3 were in. I also bought a new stock O-ring seal to go between the muffler delete and IS20 turbo, but my old one was still good even with 92k miles on it. I had to clean the turbo with a paper towel, and used some synthetic grease to hold it in place (even though it was slightly too big).I took her for a ride once completed, and with the windows up I couldn't really hear any additional noises. So I put the windows down and did some pulls, and from 2500-3500 rpm I do hear more turbo spooly-boy noise, and some additional sucking noise from my IE intake. It's not a huge difference, but it is noticable, at least with an open intake. As others have noted in the forums, the claims of better flow, more power, etc, are not really true- I didn't notice any difference in that respect. But I just wanted it for the extra sound.For about $30 and 2 hours of time is it worth it? I'm not sure- maybe. If you find your GTI too quiet and want some more 'sports car' noise, it probably is. If I had the option of doing it again, I'd probably just got to the movies and get some popcorn to go with it, and just listen more to my cat-back exhaust instead.

Good purchase.
It fits, and works. I would have liked new bolts though,I had a bit of a time getting the oem bolts back in. I'm running stock everything except oem air box has snow guard and bottom drain pipe removed along with a cutout directly in the front of j on the inlet duct. This thing added some sound to my setup. It's kind of a lower toned wooshey hiss almost like the sound of waves or white noise nothing overly dramatic or too loud though. Seems to also add some slight bit of responsiveness in situations where you accelerate let off and accelerate again. I hear it most often when taking curves.

Works
Cheap and works on early 2.0 Macans, various longitudinal Audis with the 2.0. Will not fit the latest version of the 2.0. You’ll need a different design. Better response and acceleration. Zero change in sound. It eliminates the stupid baffles in the stock design which cause nothing but hesitation and turbulent air right at the turbo outlet.

Perfect fit for 2017 Golf R
Perfect fit for my 2017 Golf R. Fit is snug and seals tight. Rub a little oil on the seals and the wall of the turbo prior to installation. Nice part for half the cost of others out there.

Nice product
After many reviews I decide to buy this product. Works great! Como with two seals per prevent any leak, easy installation and set perfect into the turbo. I used in my MK7 GTI

I say it's worth it but...
The media could not be loaded. Well, the turbo is actually quieter now but the Tiguan has a slight bit more pep. For all the people out there claiming it doesn't fit, Yes. It is a little tight. It's supposed to be! I used a little red muscle grease and it made it a little easier. In fact I believe you are supposed to lube the gaskets before you go animalistic and shove in on dry! Not a complete waste of money, but I wish it had some more turbo noise. I was looking forward to that, but I can't complain with the price. Good price for what you get. Video is after the install. I have a before video but Amazon only allows one video.
