This has probabley been asked a thousend times, but I am new to this forum, so I will ask anyway.
I currentley have an induction kit on my car (bought from max live 03) of unknown origin. It sounds ok and I do get a bit of noise from it. What I would like to know is it worth my time and more importantley MONEY putting a BFO cone on it. I have got this weekend off so I was thinking about going over to PVD and getting one.
Will I notice much difference in performance and most important - Noise?
Any comments on this please or any other induction kits that are worth looking in to are welcome.
Many thanks,

no the onlyu way ull get more power with an idduction kit is to get some heat shileds on it and plenty of cold air feeds, the bfo may gain u tiny small amounts! ull get loads more nise with a bfo cone tho

in that case you wont get power from either, just stick on a bfo cone for noise more than anything.
