Yeh unfortunately the mounts have broken off before I had it, ahh white will do for the time being mostly because I can't get free black ones from work lol. Can't complain for 40 notes at all.

Sounds amazing but dont understand why it sounds any different to a viper or bmc ?
Any guesses
 
where can i get one for my 1.2 16v?

i have checked ebay but guessing the 172 on wouldnt fit, although judging by my new "pull my car apart" skills think i could make it fit lol :D

Does sound a lot meatier, notice any difference in pull?

Maybe but proabably my imagination and the noise more than anything. Does seem a bit more free revving that it did with just a panel filter

Don't think you'd be able to fit one on the 1.2 as the inlet fanimold is completely different to the K4* engine.

what he says.
you could buy the filter and get creative with some 90 degree bends and some lengths of pipe.

i wouldnt fancy it personally.
its closer to the 172 kit than the 1.4/1.6
 
ah ok, this is what i have at the mo and im pretty good with stuff like this (good old art a level haha);

I'm not sure you'll have the room really, that and the inlet tract will be getting awfully long. I'd stick with what you've got really, the 1.2 engine (i've had one) makes a completely different (reletively crappy) noise to the 1.4/1.6 so I don't think you'll get it sounding like mine.

That and the only place you can get the kit from want £150 for it now and thats a lot to be chopping it up really.
 
do you rekcon £150 is alot to spend on a new one of these... really like the sound of it or has anyone got any other suggestions for cheaper?

Thanks

But the piping is a bit issue with the K4 series engine as the throttle body it at the back of the engine and then you need to sort the crankcase breather out.

Yes imo. But thats probably just me, there isn't really another kit i've seen that ticks all the boxes like this one does.

Pass, maybe a little and more free revving. But we all know bolt ons get you f**k all anywhere with most renault lumps.
 
  BMW M135i
where can you buy one brand new for the 1.6 i cant find it any where just 1.4

There all listed as for the 1.4, its the same engine with a longer stroke to create the 1.6 capacity. The filter is more than capable for use with a 1.6.

mines goin in for a remap the guy said buy a decent induction kit but i cant seem too find these ones
 
  BMW M135i
Well imo, its not worth spending the extra money on a viper when this does the same thing. There both cotton cone filters in a box, whether ones better than the other I don't know. Imo you won't see massive gains with it tbh even with a remap, what other mods do you have?
 
  m-tec bmw 325 ci spo
thats it at the min we are gonna see how it goes if dosent make much gain then i will throw an exhaust system on aswell i only want it a bit more responsive has a few flat spots i dont want to go mad on it a lose value
