Hi I want to tune up my punto mk2 1.9JTD..because there is a small selection of induction kits or cold air intakes for this type of engine, I want to know if some of the kits made for other cars can be fitted on JTD, I have heard a lot about ford focus induction kits, or can I use some for VW golf or polo TDI????

Why faff about trying to get some transplanted VeeDub contraption to fit when the fine people at GSR make a kit that fits and works perfectly already...

Ahh, I am sorry, I should have checked your location. GSR are a highly trusted company on this forum, but by the time you've paid for delivery and any customs charges that your country may charge, it could work out expensive. That is up to you to decide though (it costs nothing to send an email to find out)

I am afriad though, I am :bang: on this one. Diesel induction kits are rare here in the UK, so it must be hell in Bosnia to get anything. Sorry I couldn't be more help

I will send them mail with my question..thanks for any help

made something yourself, get a nice twincone filter, then piping to get it to sit some where where it can get lots of cold air, use the lest amount of joins posible.
its better to take the filter to the cold air than try and get cold air to a filter

Thx..I never saw that option and it may even turn out ok..do you know anyone who has done it?

The diesel could be unbearably boomingly loud without the standard air intake. They don't have a throttle valve (that stops most of the intake noise) like a petrol engine does.

None of the Diesel engines with induction I have done ever got enbearably boomingly loud.

Neither have I, in fact most people put them on disel engines to get smooother sound, instead of classic tap tap tap sound diesels make

lots of people have done it. you will get better results that a lot of off the shelf kits

But is there something that should I pay attention when making it, because it sound to simple to just put some piping and a nice twincone filter together

you need to have inside of pipe as smooth as possible

could someone please explain me where to connect the induction kit on my engine, do I have to take of the original air filter and its housing, or is it conested somewhere else. If someone culd mark it on the picture, it is 1.9jtd
