    Like Ray said, power can hardly be felt. It does respond better though, and with the sound, I couldn't tell a difference as I had the airbox opened up before changing filters, but everyone says it gives it a deeper/throaty sound. Worth it when you get it for your next service. They usually last longer than the car if well maintained and regularly cleaned and oiled.

    I will ask him for you Louis, he's on vacation at the moment so it may take a few weeks!

    I got much more throttle response from my BMC. No real discernible power increase though.

    Thanks guys..

    Another question for yours all.
    What if I take out the air box a shuff and just pod filter in? Want to to the concept of "hot air".. bad idea as I know...???? If so I would need an extention to bottom of car for cold air?

    Bigger job obviously but better idea? is it worth 300 odd bucks to do ?

    I hear iduction kits are sweet.

    I got myself a BMC CDA induction kit for the VR6 of ebay. Paid $250 fot it. Its second hand, the pervious owner claimed he only had it for 2000 km. Just cleaned the filter then and Its looks brand new .
    Havnt put it on the car yet.

    The vr6 has got a pod on it at the moment and it does sound sweet. Sounds especially sweet when u turn the car off and it continues to suck a little of air. lol SAAWEEET!!!!

    Shop around dude. you will find a bargain.
