    no mate they wont as there is a filter inside them. its not just a pipe straight through to your throttle body

    ok mate cool, n btw my saxo is not a mk1 its early mk2! and vtw i mean the air intake pipe that connects to the filter itself,, i sucks cold air from the bottom of the car up threw the filter. so surely its gonna suck up alot of leaves n that? even water??

    It might suck up leaves and abit of water but that's why you have a filter inside it, cleans everything. I've got the raceland one, just either mount the sensor inside the air intake or somewhere else, i doubt it's that accurate anyway.

    yeah but it has the later mk1 engine, and as said the whole reason you have a filter is to filter all the crap. so dont worry about it just clean it now n then.

    to be honest most or all induction kits give a very small increase in throttle response, and in bhp terms about a couple of extra horses. combined with manifold decat and the rest of the exhaust then it all works together giving in my opinion about 8 to 10 bhp. i run a green enclosed with a full manifold back and the power is different than standard but not by much. the viper kit you are looking at are loved by some and hated by others, i much prefer to have the green or the raceland but thats just my opinion. just go with the flow.
