I think i'll go with a BFO cone. if i find i get flat spots then i'll try make a heat shield like Corsa120 did. | |

Induction noise is created by the engine's vacuum. A free flow filter is only one element in producing a louder exhaust note. The intake piping itself is also designed to create a more mellow induction sound. | |

noise is all down to power of the vehicle, material the inlet is made from and material the filter is made from k&n cones are made from nylon and piperx/bfo are foam the foam gives the loud induction noise throughout the rev range but nylon filters are more high revving filters | |

im currently testing a drilled airbox with a panel filter to see if it makes more noise. i had a K&N on it before which was alright but found a lot of flat spots from the heat. | |

cool. sounds like the PVD BFO cone is the way to go then for sound and performance wise then. | |

The BFO is bigger and has an inverter cone on the end.... if you get what i mean... it kind of channels the air in. Thats why it sounds distinctive. | |

My mate had a K&N 57i on his old 8V SRi, sounded mint, gave a nice roar, didnt compete with a BFO cone really but still sounded sweet. | |

cool. i got 8v SRi. it sounds good as standard. i hink i will go for K&N induction kit. not sure if it will be worth going for the newgeneation 2 kit. it hs a heat shield on it. not sure if the filter is any different. has anyone got one of the new ones? are they worth the extra £££? ta:) | |

Just wondering which would give a better induction sound. Drilling the airbox or getting a K&N induction kit. And has anyone got a K&N generation 2 kit and know if they sound any better than the normal K&N kits. i got a scorpion exhuast gonig on soon to make it all sound better. |
