Induction Kit. :)

Ive been looking for a few weeks now and I have decided to go ahead and spoil myself to an induction kit.

Im looling at either the k&N 57i or the pipercross for 1.2 Stilo.

Ive heard the gsr is good but its out of my price range.. I cant decide which one I want. Has anyone got..or had either of these and can give me some feedback?

Cool Re: Induction Kit. :)

The filter of the K&N is not to bad but the design is crap like wise with the pipercross who if I am correct use sponge filtration which is the worst of the bunch and neither will give you any benefit only noise you would be better of saving and then getting the GSR

Re: Induction Kit. :)

When we had recently the RR Stilo day, out of the six Stilo 2.4, Nick's was the only one fitted with an induction. His K&N induction made our day. It was the only car that was down on power. It was down 8bhp on the rest. Pipercross isn't much better.

On the Stilo 1.2 you will loose torque on both inductions. I would not bother with an induction at all if you are not going for a proper one. Invest the money into a proper back box instead, which will give you something for the money spend.

They are under development so you have time to save up for one and in the mean time dont get tempted to buy tat mine was the first for the stilo and I waited for ages but its worth it in the end

Re: Induction Kit. :)

Ive heard good reviews about the pipercross kits..

I think what im going to do is give tesco ( the insurance co ) a ring and see how much its going to cost me with them... if its just a little i might try a pipercross out in the meanwhile when im waiting for a GSR
