Cheap induction Kit

[Pwillson]

Hey all,

I was in a car spares shop today an found a Universal Induction Kit for £40. I need a new filter so for an extra £20 why not just get a whole kit?

Or could I lose power if it's a cheap kit. It looks really nice. The make is Apiro.

I personally wouldn't bother with any induction kit on a 182, never mind a cheap one. Best set up is a V6 airbox etc.

For £40 quid I can imagine it being sh*t and if anything losing you power.

completly pointless!!! you will draw in hot air and lose power and just overall make your car worse, why did renault not give the sport range cone filters in the first place think about it

 

[Pwillson]

Well that's what I though, with a hot engine bay and all. Just thought I'd confirm with some experience tell me about the v6 airbox? Expensive? Easy to fit?

replaces the standard airbox, plenty of threads on this, do a search mate

If you going to get a induction kit get a k&n generation 2 induction kit it costs about £150 but a great set up and does work despite the haters on here

Here is my set up

 

[Pwillson]

Okay but what's the difference between that and the universal apiro one I saw? I know it's not a top brand name but does it matter? There quite a simple thing? Or is the filter really a big technological advance on the K&N?

 

[Pwillson]

And are you not getting a lot of hot air like this?

 

[gti6steve]

The k&n gen 2 set up has a direct cold feed slap bang under the filter unlike most induction kits it's all about getting cold air fed into it not hot air

 

[gti6steve]

Mine works for me it's your choice

 

[Pwillson]

Oh no sorry I just could see the Cold Air Feed!

 

[gti6steve]

My other cold air feed is hidden under the filter
