Has anybody got the BMC CDA induction kit?

If so where from and how much?

And what is it like on petrol? (getting 300-320 miles a full tank at the moment)

I only ask cos both me and the mrs used to have Cinq sportings (I know his and her cars).
Mine had an exhaust and K&N 57i kit, hers was standard.
She was getting 260 miles to a full tank whereas I was getting 180-200 miles to a full tank, someone told me it was due to the K&N filter.

I think BlackGTi has the BMC filter on his car, have a look in the tuning section (will try and find the post for you in a bit)

The fuel comsuption is probably down to the following reason - When an air filter is fitted more air flows into the engine, to even this out the cars ECU (its brain) tells it to put more fuel in, thus creaing a bigger spark, thus creating more power. This would explain the fuel consumption (however that does seem like quite a big difference

)

hope that helps

What is the part number?

They make an actual KIT for the Lupo GTI so wont it be the same for the Polo.

All the same size engine, mounts and fittings innit?

Hey All, Yes a Lupo GTi should definiately fit as the Lupo Uses the same engine as the Polo GTi.

Look here at my installation nearly seven months ago now.
