I fitted it last spring, but kept the original induction pipe on the car untill this summer, when i modified it and add a new, bigger pipe that goes from the grille, right up to the filter.
I dont remember noticing any big power gains when i fitted it originally, or when i modified the pipe...
Ive got a K&N on my 16v, with a homemade induction kit - original one was pants.

I am gonna invest in a new alarm for my 16V, what can you recommend for under 300 notes? Would the original renault immobilser still work? thus having 2 immobilsers i.e cheaper insurance?
Not sure - i run my 185/55/15s on about 40 psi - the tyres state max of 51 psi....does anyone know if they are over/under inflated?
