Air filter

I seen a air filter from halfords - ripspeed, just wanted to know do they fit mk2 2002 punto, and plus how does it sound, is it like really loud or anything?..

Thanks

That is just a filter, you will need some silicone or aluminum piping to run from the throttle body to the filter. Whatever you do don't sit the filter on top of the throttle body either, this will mean the filter gets very hot and will lose you power and possibly increase fuel consumption.

The filter itself is probably just as good as one you would get with a cheap induction kit from ebay. What model punto do you have? There's a kit for a ford focus on ebay that will fit the 1.2 8v model. I have this and it gives a nice sound, and for 40 quid delivered its great value.

If you want a nice sound and a dramatic performance increase, you will have to shell out for either a GSR or BMC CDA induction kit and get your car remapped.

go for a ford focus kit off ebay 35 quid brand new and my car standard was 60bhp not dyno'd though but i got my car dyno'd with the kit on in feb at red dot in watford and came off the roller with 66bhp so they do do something performance wise. But for unltimate sound and performance go for a GSR induction kit, there beasts. My car is a 1.2 8v anyway. Hope this helps

u in watford then ? same,


thanks lads, really helps, i dont really want it really really lound, just a nice decent sound, not to chavy if you get me ?. erm i think its a fiat "go" whatever that is, i think its a sport model , cos its got bucket seats standard etc ect??

i dont live in watford i live 250 mils away from it up north eat way. It sounds alright ill try n get a video of it up on youtube, i think ive got one before i put my exhaust on. coz ya dont know what engine it is , do you know at all what bhp it is 60 or 80? take apic of ya engine and post it we might be able to tell from that. But is its 16v the focus kit wont fit.

heres a vid of it but not my car, mines exactly the same

oh sweet lol, that sounds good. ill get a picture up of the engine tomorrow.

hOpefully that ford induction kit will fit lol

The punto 'Go!' is the 1.2 8v with sports trim i believe. Although apparently there are some 16v versions of it around. The focus kit will only fit the 8v.

w00 thats my car.

that turned out to be the worst mounting place for the bracket, and im much happier with my GSR kit now

use the search feature.

theres well over a couple of hundred threads on this.

I'm quite happy with my induction kit the focus one, 66bhp go me

35 quid and u get a decent sound and those few extra horses, or maybe fiat made my engine on a good day hehe.
I need to make a mounting bracket, where did you connect yours to?

connected mine to the redundant air box screw hole on the passenger's side

i wil have a look tomorrow
