   After fittin a Green RamAir Induction Kit (cone ina Scoop) aweek after I bought my VTS I was very unimpressed with the overall performance and more importantly Quality of the item for the price.
   
   Im buyin a Peugeot 106GTi Induction kit off eBay which looks like a K&N Gen2 kit with a kind of heat shield with a penin for a cold air feed.
   
   As soon as it turns up and it is fitted I'll post some Pic's and let you know about fit & performance.

   Is it the Green enclosed you had? I thought they were mean't to be pretty good as the Citroen Rally team run them on their Saxo rally cars.
   
   But keep us posted as Im interested to see a Gen 2 kit actually on a car!

   the green enclosed is way better than the k&n gen 2 kit. just looked at a pic of it and the k&n is an open filter- the 'heatshield' will do fuck all it'll still suck in hot air.

   didnt think mcdonalds did stars anymore because is unfair to favour peole and a form of discrimination or summin

   In my experince the car seems 2hold back sometimes wen I try and pull away hard from a standing stop also wen I get round to about 5000 5500 the car sometime seems to hold back so Im gona see how a open cone compares.
   My VTS is runnin a Janspeed Heat wrapped 421, Sports Cat and Cat Back system (All Janspeed). Wana test both filters on the road & maybe on rollin road 2.
   
   I can always fit the Green back.
   
   Im not one too follow the crowd so, I have nearly bought a BMC but always seem to find somethin better to spend £200 on :-)

    definately. add 150 on that 200 youve got some cams.
    williamsvts just had his on the rolling road with bmc and a simito with green filter inside and the simito performed better
