   hi thinking of putting an induction kit on my 2003 vtr been looking at the viper kit as my mates told me just putting a standard pipercross or k and n will mess up the ECU and do my car no good! so bit confused as to what to do? is this the case or do they work fine and has anyone got either as viper kit or any other kit and had any probs ?
   cheers!

   bolllocks your mate talks bollocks lol
   
   wont mess up the ecu when you put one on at all, i have a forced green induction on mine and it idles and runs perfectly
   
   what do you want the induction for, power or noise???

   Your mate is wrong. go for a BMC enclosed kit as well mate.

   vipers are average as there metal cased which will heat up. the object to get the coldest air you can

   green carbon enclosed is def the best. wont mess with ur ecu at all. only turbos or supercharges may. the ecu reads the amount coming though in the carb so dont matter what induction you have.
