BMC CDA Filter

[Shaun Cook]

Are these actually worth what u pay for them. like id pay around £150 for one. but what kind of performance gain would i get from this that would be beneficial for me??

this is on a 1.6 16v

Cheers!

Figures show a 5-6% increase in power with the CDA.

 

[Shaun Cook]

OK. and they go by saying under 1600cc engines or over 1600cc. mine will be under wont it because its like 1589cc or something?

The smaller 'under 1600cc' one would be more than adaquate
- but you could get a 3-4% increase more cheaply/easily just by fitting a K&N panel filter within the standard airbox, without it shouting 'Look! it's modified!' when anyone, (insurance man, e.t.c.) opens the bonnet.

lol,
- Oh well in that case, stop buggering about and drop an Alfa V6 in there....

I have the bigger one on my HGT and yeah i can see power increase but if u get one i would go for the smaller one as well because the big ones are really hard to get sat right as they are really big lol. As i say got mine in more or less ok now but i just need to mess about with it a bit so i can get cold air pipe on it... oh and they sound awesome as well!

im sure you'd feel the money more in your bank than feel the extra performance one of these things will get you. £150 ouch!

if you want more noise then just keep the air box and put a panel filter in. lot cheaper to.
