   Absolutly no! I got one of them for free these things are worth £40 new or about £10 2nd hand. For £90 you can buy a raceland enclosed induction which IS better.

   I had a bmc and loved mine. Will give you slight gains and you wont get any heat soak, so it will be better for your engine as it will be receiving cooler air. Much cheaper second hand though mate. Iv just sold one for £100

    Highly reccommended but there was a thread on here the other day that a guy bought a cheap replica BMC that was just as good but it was £57 new!
    
    Otherwise buy this
