I need a loud induction kit!

[spirez]

Im looking for a nice loud induction kit for a new clio 1.2 16v. im not that impressed with the sound of K&N so have been looking at a PiperX kit. i like the look of the new k-tec kits but how do they sound? Basically i want it quite loud because i wont be fitting a new exhaust so im not bothered about power gains.

I like the look of this - http://www.k-tecracing.com/products/general/kf_4.jpghttp://www.k-tecracing.com/products/general/kf_4.jpg

Cant have a relocation kit as i ordered the car with air con

The foam piperx one that is on Chrisnnics Cup sounds lots better than my K&N. You can also relocate the kit yourself with some hose where the original airfeed comes from.

I got sick of waiting for k tec to release the ramcharcher for the 172 so I got a piper X today. Its nice and loud but Im reserving judgement till its been on a bit longer. First thoughts are that its lost power but Ill see how it goes.

The loudest one Ive heard is those cheapo ones you can get for 20 quid (the ones with the plastic cover over the filter and shiney cone bit at the end) Tried one of those on the clio for a couple of days and feck me was it loud. Felt quicker too.
