induction kits work well on the rollers and cold air feeds count for nothing because the bonnet is up!

yeah, my 1.0i put out sxi power on a rolling road near me...that was when it ran correctly though! Soon to be fixed mind, with a full cat back stainless system. (mods on dyno at time where k&n filter, 2 cold air feeds, bosch super4 plugs, magnex backbox) and it ran 63bhp. Ive since changed all those mods, got a stainless steel mesh induction kit, gm plugs (seem to be better) and a custom made centre exit quarter system. (backbox and a bit more.) But will be getting possibly a powerflow cat back system made up, depending on cost and if they can do what i want (twin motorbike style cans each side).

i've done both of them and a full exhaust system, on my 1.4 sport, and the gains r minimal, don't expect to be breaking any records.....

you would not loose torque?!!! Very rare anyway.

 posted on 1st May 03 at 12:43

0-60 could be slower due to reduced torque

power wise, maybe not that much, but will improve throttle response and pulling away power...maybe shave half a second off your 0-60 time?

0-60 and top end depend on wheels, weight incar, its impossible to say without taking it on a dragstrip.
bout 3bhp added probably.

Hi
How much extra would a decat pipe and induction kit add onto a 1.4 16v and how quick would it be 2 60mph and top end, this is just because im curious, Im selling engine 2 J100 RSA.:D
