Induction kit for 1.4s

[Blue4Ever]

2000.

Whats the best one to get and what is the most cost effective one to get? I know there is limited choice for my model so any ideas will be appreciated. Pictures with them fitted would also be great.

Thanks fellas. No it's just for the sound really.

Sounds nice mitch. How much did you pay? Also mitch, does it look easy enough to return to standard when the time comes to sell up, also I guess you loose the look of the square engine cover as the top right part is the air box isn't it? I guess that black pipe is your cold air feed? lol

I might just go to waxacar or quickshift and get them to sort one out for me.

Although I've just found this, should do the trick, seems a bit expensive though?

nahh do it yourself mate!! its a peice of piss.

I think it was about £50/60 cant remember now.

yeah that massive blue thing is your airbox, it seriously takes 5 mins to take it off and fit the k&n, the intructions you get are very good.

The airbox is only held on by 4 bolts iirc, and the k&n has a fitment bracket that you bolt down with 2 of the bolts you took off. then just plop the k&n on to that, job done

yes that black pipe is my CAF (cold air feed) it was tempary and still is

I will be ordering a new silver one soon, and the engine is cleaner than in that pic too

 

[M1TCH]

lol that is way too much mate, and I dont think thats the right one either.

hold on ill find it

 

[M1TCH]

found it on www.knfilters.co.uk

this is the one you want.

2000 RENAULT Clio 1.4L L4 F/I - 8v Automotive 57i Kit 57-0356

According to the guide that's the right one on ebay, thought it seemed a bit steep though! I think it might be confusing you 'coz of the picture, I think it's just a general picture, it says the 57-0242 is for the 1.4/1.6 with square airbox.

^^ EDIT, nice one matey! It lists Waxacar on the K&N site so I'll call in there and see how much they are.

 

[M1TCH]

actually sorry they probably are around that price, google k&n 57-0356 and you might find it cheaper.

but i got discount on mine through a mate

[M1TCH]

well post a pic of your engine but I'm pretty sure it must be!

 

[V1NNY]

nah dont get that one

 

[M1TCH]

why not! you got it!

 

[V1NNY]

57-0356 will fit, i had 2 and the one for the 1.4 and 1.6 is better

 

[Blue4Ever]

nah dont get that one

Why? What better is there?

 

[M1TCH]

cos he's homosexual :rasp:

 

[V1NNY]

57-0488 is the one you want

 

[M1TCH]

this one!

 

[V1NNY]

nah thats the 16v one

 

[V1NNY]

dam wrong code then lol, let me find it

 

[Blue4Ever]

I'm confused now! does 0488 fit ok? It's the 0356 that you've got isn't mitch?

 

[Blue4Ever]

lol vinny! Nice one if you can find it!

 

[V1NNY]

57-0242 is the one you want, i've had both, the one mitch has got and this one, this one is better in my opinion

Cheers Vin. Whats better about it mate?

 

[M1TCH]

this one then!!

 

[V1NNY]

heres mine, dont know where the bonnet went lol, if mitch posts a pic of his then you can see

 

[M1TCH]

and how the f**k does that have a bigger surface area? my spaceship (and something else ) is much bigger!!

 

[V1NNY]

this is your one, over all its bigger, its wider and not as tall

 

[Blue4Ever]

Don't know where the bonnet got to - FPMSL!!

Thanks Vinny and mitch, £80-£90 seems to be about the going rate for them both. I'll go to waxacar soon armed with K&N 57i part numbers to see if they can do me a better deal.

 

[V1NNY]

anyways mate, save yourself the money and get a enclosed green dynatwist, best one for our 1.4's

 

[V1NNY]

well i'd get a dynatwist cause theres prob more of a performance bennefit from it over the open 57i kits

 

[Blue4Ever]

anyways mate, save yourself the money and get a enclosed green dynatwist, best one for our 1.4's

I thought they were more expensive, any links mate? This is another good possibility.

 

[V1NNY]

let me have a look

 

[V1NNY]

i've had a look and most companys that stock the dynatwist have them for our car

First one I came accross, bit pricey but if it's worth it...

 

[V1NNY]

yeah thats the one mate, dont buy the k&n and get one of these, the k&n is open so will suck in hot air, where as the dyna twist is enclosed and better

 

[Blue4Ever]

OK, thanks alot for your help mate and mitch aswel. Like I said I'll go to the place near me and see what sort of prices they can do me. Does £150-ish sound about right for the Green Dynatwist?
