   I think a induction kit is beyond my hammer & screwdriver skills at moment, so it looks like an air filter + cleanup 1st

    Induction kit = air filter mate. Theres open cones like K&N which everyone will say are shite and a complete waste of money, but are good for the noise. Can get em for about 50-80 quid. Then theres performance ones which will give you a bit more poke, but theyre much more expensive unless you get em second hand or get a raceland one off ebay.

    Aye. Id go for a manifold if you can afford it though mate. Will make a bigger difference. Maker a bigger difference to the wallet aswell but well worth it i reckon

    Yeah, look for 1.4 saxo mods rather than furio mods mate. If it fits a VTR it usually fits a furio, most VTS mods wont fit furios as the bay layout is different.

    this is so true my mate brought an induction kit for a vts tried to fit it to his furio and it fouls against the block.
    
    so needless to say we atached a bit of drain pipe and sum insulation tape and it works a treat.lol
