Tuning Universal induction kit

[jrb1512]

I found an induction kit i wanted to try out on my sporting, wasnt sure if it will fit it says its universal and has a 77mm inlet.

It comes with some different sized adaptor rings so would it just be a case of hoping for the best? Anyone know the size of the tubing on the standard filter?

Chances are it's ****e. Forget it, get something known to work unless you have a relative with a rolling road..................

im not expecting any power gains from a universal kit, just wanted a deeper sound while im saving for a bigger engine

I'd forget that, too. I mean, you might as well walk around with a sock stuffed down your trousers for all the good it'll do!

Does your car have MPI or SPI? They need different induction kits.
Centos from late 2000 are MPI IIRC
So long as it's cheap and you're not expecting power gains, I'd give it a try.

Or just save for a GSR kit (£100 for SPI, £140 for MPI)

I think Mr Fingers has his tongue firmly in his cheek, however, why do you want your car to sound fast rather than be fast.

Pretty pointless paying extra insurance to go slower, in my humble opinion.

Probably the best easy mod is just to fit a Punto 75 cam, shim it to suit. You can pick them up from scrappies for £25 quid upwards (grab some shims while you're in there). You could port match the inlet mani with a dremel (although they're not really up to major porting) or Aldi/Netto etc. do Dremel a likes for well under £20.

The other mods like are lowering it 40mm, putting 6J 14" wheels on it, and uprating the brakes to Punto GT. Performance exhausts pop up in classified here and on Club Cento at around half the price of a new original system.
