Will one of these get me any real gains?
in comparison to what i have now - standard airbox with ITG panel filter?

 

[Fred@BTM]

can't see the point in spending £350 on something that won't affect the cars performance in a major fashion

save it and put it towards a cam conversion

 

[Alan]

Its only a k&n cone filter inside a carbon box...lol

 

[Fred@BTM]

^prepared to by lynched my son^

 

[Alan]

Knowsit....everyone wants to spend the extra £150 and have a yozzasport in their life....

Good enough for me! LOL

I wanna ask you about thing like cams etc when i come up soon Fred.

 

[Fred@BTM]

let me answer for the masses

"vipers are s**t, get a maxogen"

i'm yet to see a maxogen gain 12bhp on a remap, i've seen vipers do it, ask Roamer if you don't believe me! even lord himself BenR saw gains back in hong kong

 

[Ali]

Blah blah blah...Now send my wheels! Vipers love men, BMC's mildly better providing you get a decent feed. ITG = Quality!

Cams...What a waste of money...

 

[Fred@BTM]

you can drive one of our cammed cars anytime gayboy, then tell me its a waste of money!

 

[S22 JGS]

is that an open offer Fred?
can i have a go while you fit my H&R's?

 

[S22 JGS]

is that an open offer Fred?

Can i try one while you guys fit my H&R's?

 

[Fred@BTM]

yeah if we have one available, if not yoz will take you out in the 1.2

 

[S22 JGS]

sweet

 

[Fred@BTM]

or i'll take you out in the V6 (if its done)

 

[S22 JGS]

hell yeh!! even better!!

 

[Tay]

So a straight up answer please Fred are Vipers s**t ??? Are Maxogens as good comparable not based on prices or better
Much appreciated

 

[Fred@BTM]

NOTHING wrong with a Viper, a BMC or a Maxogen, they all do the same thing, filter air

quickest 172's down the 1/4mile had a viper (13.9sec)

 

[Tay]

Okey cokey so I have a dilemma for you. Ive just got hold of a 2nd hand Viper. I currently have an ITG panel in orig airbox. Only other change to car is cat back exhaust. Should I fit the Viper & CAF or leave as is & sell the filter on hanging my head in shame thinking I know more about modding than I actually do LOL.

 

[Ali]

It also had f**k all in it? Timo's?

There is very little in it between mine and stoddies and his is cam'd! and running 207.

I wouldn't buy a maxogen...Esp bein scottish, I just happened to pay very little for mine!

Leave it as it is! The viper is messy and somehow as soon as you fit IK's they f**k things up, idle becomes irratic and the low down throttle response is gash.

 

[Tay]

Oh ok so who wants to buy a Viper then lol

those "big jobs" should be left to experts sonny jim

 

[Ali]

^agree'd...Who are the experts tho? Surely not those spanner monkeys @ YS?!

 

[christurbo]

My VX220 was ITGs test development car the the Maxogen for the VX - it saw 10bhp on the RR before and after.

 

[Ali]

^ Decent gain that! Mine was about 4bhp. Which on this engine is decent considering the location of the IK.

 

[Andyman]

Ive owned a Viper and have now got a Maxogen.

You wont notice much of a difference, honestly

 

[CHRIS172CUP]

The money for a maxogen will get you out to the ring, buy you a few laps and currywurst's...I know what I'd rather do.

 

[Steviant]

The money for a maxogen will get you out to the ring, buy you a few laps and currywurst's...I know what I'd rather do.

I'd do both.

You can though Steve, graphic designers wages are a lot higher than 3D designers

 

[Andyman]

You'd get a high percentage of your money back if you come to sell a Maxogen so the added premium is all pretty much balanced out over the piece.
The quality of the kit and the way it fits is streets ahead of anything else on the market imo

 

[Jim_RT]

Don't forget, not one engine is alike. So you may be lucky and have one producing more bhp than original. You go and fit a Viper and have a RR done and get a figure of like +12bhp and go "ah that Viper is ace". Yet someone else get's a different filter on a same model car but has less bhp. It might just be the engine. Best way is if you are dirty rich is buy different ones and test them on the same car.
