Jonas, mods on modern cars do only make a very small difference.

103BHP is the quoted figure at the flywheel, NOT the wheels.

Nowhere. The ramair one does not fit (I have the pics to proove it and somewhere an email from ramair) and no-one else even tries to make one.

The 1.6 is the black sheep of the range, the distance from throttle to filter box is very long as you probably know so needs alot of hose and hence costs alot to make a kit.

I'd keep away from the BMC filter, they are badly made and a ripoff. Their idea of an induction kit is a flimsy push on plastic collar to make the filter outlet the right size and a length of aluminium ducting to connect it all up. No hose clips at all to stop it falling to bits and letting dirt into your engine.

Its basically a £30 filter in a rough carbon fibre tube.

do u know where i can get one?

Don't, its awful. The whole point of an induction kit is to improve on whats already there, the K&N makes it worse if you ask me.

yes mate i used to own one untill i stuffed into a lampost at 70mph. anyway they run standered at 103bhp i got mine up to 115bhp with just a k+n 57i kit which i got new for 70 brick and a stainless back box it ran like a dream.

Re: bhp

12BHP with an induction kit?

and I've just seen a flying pig!

 

[david]

Re: Re: bhp

extra 12bhp from an induction kit AND a stainless backbox if you read it properly

 

[Tom]

Re: Re: Re: bhp

Which rolling road did you go to?

 

[david]

Re: Re: Re: Re: bhp

it was done at well lane turbo

 

[Richard]

Re: Re: Re: Re: bhp

That sure is some increase. I wouldn't expect that with a pipercross viper.
Backbox doesnt make a scrap of difference, you need a full system with manifold to see an increase in that department

 

[Tom]

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: bhp

Ah.. you'd probably find most other rolling roads would give you about half that increase.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: bhp

well thats what the dyno read if you don't believe it put it to the test and see for yourself.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: bhp

I'm going to get my 1.6 done at some point, need a new exhaust first as I know mine is blocked as anything.

Yogis has SS exhaust, manifold, K&N on his 1.8 and it dyno'd at 113BHP.
