Induction Kits - any point?

[wellog]

Just put on a longlife stainless half system and the F sounds nice and raspy now. Was thinking of adding an induction kit, but it has occurred to me that a cone filter would be sucking warm air straight from the engine bay? Doesn't seem a much point in adding one really.

Would appreciate views,

Gary

There's some great induction kits about, Taipan enclosed but expensive,Pipercross,or make up your own enclosed filter, but re Cone K&N open type filter they are great but as you say warm air ot good that's why you need to put a pipe or two 4" from cone and put pipe ends i side ven or fix underneath car facing front, i've had both sorts and they do make a difference,the sound is awesome and adds a few more ponies,some links below which may be of help and sure other members will be along to advise, Dave
