oh dear oh dear oh dear :angry:
as the start of this thread states, k&n induction kit makes the world of difference!!!!. does it? oviously on some cars it does, on some cars not that much, down to your own taste me thinks, f**k physics, if you`ve got a car with standard suspension, and sh!t tyres with a k&n induction kit on is it going to go round a track quicker than the same car with coilovers and good tyres me thinks not, as i said before PERSONAL PREFERANCE. you`ve just got to think why you want one
i will say this only once PERSONAL PREFERANCE, if you`ve got a shagged engine with a k&n on and a sweet engine without which one`s going to run better me thinks the sweet engine


PERSONAL PREFERANCE :laugh:

not sure what you are "oh dear oh dear"ing about. i agree with you. alot of people on this forum think that an engine with 150k on it though is still sweet.

get it rebuilt properly - then you'll know what sweet is.

ok, so lets put this simply on what i have read

The air filters that are put on a car by a manufacturer are restrictive due to regulations set by governments/EU, so this will impede the flow of air to the engine, hence marginally lower peformance acheived.

 So either drilling the air box and removing the throat as '6 said, or putting a performance filter on, will increase the air flow to the engine, and if im not mistaken, this will improve the performance of the engine, but will not have a dramatic effect to it, or the top end speed of gears.

This to me seems a bit obvious because more airflow = more oxygen = better burn of the fuel!!!!

:smiley:

And '6 this is the most calm argument i have ever seen you partake in!!!
