Tuning bmc cda vs gsr??

[yellow seicento]

hey guys, ive had a poke around on the forum couldn't find the answer,
I drive a 2002 punto sporting 16v,

My question is which is better??
The GSR induction kit or the BMC CDA kit, both cost around the same ect??
My aim for my car is to get around 100bhp so which ever will help me make these gains, read bad and good reports on both kits.
Thanks guys and gals

the gsr. the bmc isnt an induction kit just a filter

some where on the forum is my back to back rr graphs of both gsr and bmc cda

the bmc one is expensive if its just a filter, looks like a cone on the pictures,

this was the test back to back 1.2 16v same car same day

there are other cheaper choices though such as home made kit, i am not saying buy the gsr, just its not worth paying all that money for the bmc cda

thankyou very much for them graphs, what would I need for a homemade kit, plus would this help me get 100 bhp in the long run, I have a focus induction kit for a seicento MPI if that helps, and a spare K&N filter also for a seicento kicking about somewhere

easiest way to get 100hp is just put the 1.4 16v engine in, its plug n play and instant 100hp

id love to do that but its convincing my dad to help me, plus I dont have alot of time off from work, that would be what i would want to do though.

get the right engine and its a 2 day job at the most

To get 100bhp from a 1.2, at the minimum will need a modded head and new cams. Im sure that will really wind up the OP's dad. Not to mention the insurance.

Though either option will will soon wind up the latter.

swapping an engine for one of they same type but bigger is surprisingly cheap on insurance compared to other mods on the smaller engine
