Simota Carbon Aeroform. Get a CAF running to it and you won't notice a loss in power :)

For the price of the maxogen, you could get matched inlets and a custom RSTuner remap. Cheaper, and better gains.

maxogen is waste of time, just another induction kit that doesnt really gain anything over standard airbox but noise!

those are aweful. take air from nowhere but straight off the radiator, nice and hot.

Which is why I now have a large CAF running directly to it. Rhino17 (IIRC) actually gained 1bph with his when last on the rollers but generally speaking, Induction kits do bugger all anyway except put a smile on your face!

looked ok, but decided to put it too standard partly for insurance reasons. Put an ITG in there and much much prefere it. The standard airbox is well designed by Renault, the induction kits seem to be a bit of con tbh, although obviously I can't speak for the maxogen etc but its costs an arm and a leg so I would never bother.

The chap who mentioned matched inlets & RSremap is dead on, its a no brainer in my opinion if you want an actual performance gain!

^ The holes where the inlets meet are machined so they match, for a smoother air flow.

Someone will probably come along with a detailed explanation soon but that's the main idea :)
