u need 16v for it to sound anyway half decent

but it will sound better than a std airbox

I thought it was between 8v and 16v but then realisised the early 8v SRi's roar well too.

So I think its between spi and mpi.
Mpi's having a louder roar.

what ever kit u go for their will be unnotciable difference in power between them

PVD's BFO cone is quite loud so ive been told

K&N and Pipercross are pretty much the same, so if u really want an induction kit just go for what ever1 is cheepest

with a drilled airbox go for a panel filter like K&N, i only say this cos its what ive got and i like it

the drilled airbox wiv a performance filter does sound deep & roars like crazy!
I've got a K&N induction kit on mine atm tho, sounds nice, can hear it suckin the air in, and with the straight thru exhaust i got (de-catted), sounds verrrrry nice!!

Easy to fit, will give the engine a bit more roar, depends what you have in the way of a zorst tho really.

Best bet, drilled airbox :thumbs:
