cheers for your comment shantybeater, ive been reading autoexpress last week they were talking about the cup gti, hopefully if they get more will buyers asking for it, they will make it for the uk, but a price tag for £16,200 est i dont think its worth it lol..

Well guys finally got round into fitting on my Induction kit. Its and BMC CDA. It was quite easy to install, but havent yet installed a cold air feed because it aint enough room for it at the moment for where it is placed. but i have a few issues with my car when installing this induction kit. when installed i took it out for a spin the problem was that my car didnt feel right, its like lost all the low end power. i believe my car wasnt boosting. sometimes its boosts and sometimes it doesnt i think its to do with the maf sensor correct me if im wrongs heres a few pics.

Hello Ray Chan

First of all, nice car, I like the choice of your alloys, nice colour, just a nice 9n3. 8)

What I wanted to ask, what was your motivation to put the bmc airbox ?

it looks like that there is little air getting into the induction.
Get the air feed asap :lol: and you'll be alright!

with the original setup you used to have an OEM cold air induction kit, now that you haven't installed an air feed it's acceptable that you lost some amount of torque. you are sucking in the hot air of the engine compartment instead of the cool outside air. once you sort the piping you will see an improvement.
good choice of intake, by the way 8)

Superb looking motor like everything you have done lose the chrome strip though it makes the car look like a vauxhall and it can only damage that lovely paint work ultimately. Sorry but thats my honest opinion.

Hi mate no probs with your questions sorry for a late reply, well at first the bmc induction kit was difficult to fit on because i didnt have a clue, but as soon as u know wat tools u need and equipment u need its pretty easy to install.
