That or put the OE airbox back on for now, good for at least 350 - 400 bhp, the Litchfield Type 25s still uses the original airbox

This statement always confuses me. The airbox may be "good" for 350-400bhp but wont changing to an induction kit give you an increase in bhp anyway ?!?! therefore getting you to 350 quicker and more cheaply ?!?!?

or am I talking from my ring ?!!?

I never understand why a induction kit should need a remap. You can fit kits so Supras, Skylines, Silvia etc and they done throw the toys out the pram and need a remap.

The AFM meter the amount of air passing by it. So if more is passing by it it will meter thata and thus increase fueling shurely. Is this not correct?
