PH2 172
Buy an ITG Maxogen! i love mine, awesome sound
S'trollin on size 7s
the JMS setup is the only one proven to be effective performance wise, other induction kits usually as said above just choke the engine with warm air or just generally make no difference whatsoever apart from the noise! id stick with a panel filter ,either pipercross or itg filters seem to be the most popular ,but unless you get yourself some other little mods, ie exhaust ,de cat and remap your hardly going to notice any difference in performance tbh
I went to an RR day yesturday, the JMS kit made ZERO diference over standard.
PH2 172. Virtually the same all the way through the rev range. Makes a nice noise though..
Clio 197
really ? is it that simple? I might give this a go...
yep what he said, i have a k&n filter, with the cold air feed unplugged, sounds extremely deep sounding! very impressive for free mod

BMC CDA is a bad filter setup. Strangles the engine

Do you have the k&n panel filter or the 57i?

I can't see how the BMC is so bad? Mine has one with a cold airfeed and anyone who has been in it will say it is pretty quick...maybe just a BMC isn't great but with a map to suit it is makes a bigger difference?
I found that my car felt quicker with the standard airbox before the rest of my mods but I put it down to the fact that the flap in one of the airfeeds opens at a certain point and this would make it feel like a sudden rush but with no flap the full amount of air would be getting in right through the rev range and you wouldn't get the surge you get with the std setup

If your talking about the acoustic valve, you are way off.

So it opens up at a certain rpm (which the above helpful video shows :S) which in turn will allow more air in but that won't make any difference? Surely if more air is coming in (within reason) then this should make a difference.
Incidentally I manged to get a 14.2 second 1/4 mile with a 'rubbish' Pipercross open ik in 28degs heat...with a standard I would have been in the 13's by all accounts lol

It is open at rest. I beleive it closes at high rpm for EU drive by noise regulations. Its not a throttle body as such.
It shows little movement in the video possibly because there is no load. I posted the video to show that its starting position is open, not closed.

Did you not run the same times with a CDA encolsed kit ? - your motors a hero of mine haha Epic engine
e92 + E46 M3 + Cup
Not effected by engine RPM as such more engine load, the idea behind it is to remove "induction noise" hence why if you sit & blip on the spot it will stay open, Film it when the cars at the bottom of the rpm range/ high gear at WOT and shut it goes

I have only run it once since more work (and the caf) but at the time it was running a lower than standard limiter...pretty much the same times but 1mph quicker over the line so I imagine now it would probs dip into the 13's now but it seems to have loads (comparatively) of torque quite low down so it is a dream to drive in comparison to Nics 182

You'll surely need a suitable remap before you'll see any gains, i wish i could hear my maxogen over my exhaust i used to love the sound of it.
