a piper cross cold air feed on my phase 1 172. i have the original air box with a K&N filter inside it. would the new one make much of a difference? i alos have a straight through stainless exhuast.

Induction kit will give you zero added performance but one hell of a nice sound, especially on a 2.0 16V

 

[Jon.L]

do they not add performance on a car. if not ys that? as every1 tells me they do!

 

[DazG]

Perhaps were talking 1-2 bhp if your lucky. Its all about noise! The exhaust and IK are purely breathing mods in my mind.

You want more performance you need to look at remaps, cams, etc
