BMC induction kits???



T

im wanting a new indution kit for my car whats the best you guys reckon then???:S
 
I have had a BMC cda, but after alot of research on here I opted for the phase 1 setup with pipercross filter. It feels better on throttle response and pulls better mid range

cheers for that guys. i alreadt hace the stock air box with the itg filter i just thought that induciton kit would be better:S think i might stick then.
 
We did a lot of testing a while back and found no difference between the standard airboxes and aftermarket options with fairly standard power outputs, anything open air filter'like lost 3 - 4 bhp.

Phase 1 airbox is technically lower loss than the Phase 2 but I've not seen enough of a difference in my experience of them to make me think it's worthwhile swapping between them.

If you want some extra noise drill a few holes on the pre-filter side of the stock box ;)

dont expect much peak increase mate, however your mid range power will be much more useful, instead of the kick at 5k it just pulls much harder from around 3k upwards.

sounds better like i got told re mapp added about 10-15 bhp lol?

ahh right nice one so worth doing then. but before i do it ill have to de cat exhaust first so can map it to that. you a fan of decats hipwell?
 
10bhp is achieveable on a remap, come to think of it i think i gained 10.1bhp, you have asked all these questions before mate in threads yesterday

Decat - Your own choice if you want
Custom remap - rstuning, 80mile away from you and paul is top class
Normal remap - rstuner
Induction kit - None, standard and air filter

Not spitting no dummy out mate its just you seem to be asking the same questions over and over and creating the same threads, the search button is you best friend as all the things you need to know have been discussed many times, as far remapping, a standard remap i.e rstuner you will see 6bhp max wheres a custom remap you will see slightly more bhp, like i said i gained 10bhp at rstuning

well cheers mate im going to look into it. i mean im not all clued up these re maps i dont even know the difference between custom remap and standard one:eek: but from what you just put custom sounds the better one lol!
 
Only thing is a custom map costs more, but its all down to preference, i noticed massively when i had mine remapped, you dont feel the 5k kick as much because its already pulled more speed from lower revs

cheers mate for your advice its taken on board think ill go with standard at rs soundslike it done your cup well pal.
 
T

tomstyle172

just looked into that rs tuning for standard re map says it will add uptp 8bhp think ill go for that one mate if it was good for your cup. doesnt give a price though how much is it pal?

If you want to have a drive in a remapped clio before you get yours done you more than welcome have a drive in mine, dont live far from you

ohh nice one mate will take you up on that offer see what its like. where bouts you from like?:)
 
About £350 for custom remap, paul must of done about 20 dyno runs on my car, keeps tinkering with it until hes perfectly happy with it, im from guisborough mate
