Makes a nice difference to performance and as a bonus makes the exhaust sound better as well. Definately worth doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably with an induction kit from Battens. Waiting to hear back on price with the BMC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole kit with the K&N will cost about $200. Send a PM to GT-P as he owns the place and get the e mail address from him as it has pictures on it. Takes about 45 minutes to fit.
