saw it at autosport, looked over-engineered, poorly screwed together and expensive

think it was tested on a ctr, and got good gains, remember them being chuffed with the readouts when i went to get my new air box...... the operator may be having them on tho as he mentioned putting leds in the box to make it look better

What a load of crap, best thing i ever did was buy a decent panel filter, all the basically is is a see through airbox

^^^ Would help if I read that the graph was on about a CTR :lol:

Cybermonkey - Nah they were talking about it a few months back when the VForce was first announced.

There are filters for the Type R that do actually increase BHP by upto 15bhp believe it or not, dyno proven.

Honda owners would believe it though. and ask questions like "will it rev to 15000rpm innit bruv

Apparently they thought on a CTR it would increase power by that much which wouldn't be unrealistic compared to how the other air filters increase BHP.

thing is they're most likely going to have to make it smaller and surely that will affect how it performs possibly rendering it crap.

Will most probably have different sizes etc for different cars.

probably £300+ looks a little bit over engineered :lol: look at the amount of shoot on it and i'm not sure what engine has the space to accomodate that box :!


Jake

it looks alright but i think the stats are exaggerated slightly. No way would it increase performance by that much on a NA car.
