    as stated above, but for the enclosed induction kit its as the name says, the filter is enclosed to stop heat from engine bay going back into inlet, as hot air is not as dense as cold air so it drops power when being fed hot air, the enclosed stops this as its fed nice cool air from front of car.
    cams and remap will put smile on your face aswell

    Either slow down or apply your brakes very firmly causing them to slow down. If they overtake you, don't speed up. They're the ones who have no road awareness and they're the ones who will be caught out for it.
