   exhaust system would make it louder and might improve performace depending on what one you get.

   watch the de-cat though. If your car was manufactured after a certain date you will have to have a cat to pass an MOT!

    remove the standard air box from the engine and disconect all joining pipes. Put an oil breather filter onto the pipe coming from the rocker cover. Then attach the filter/induction kit to the inlet manifold. Fix securly in place. Shut your bonnet start your engine off you go
