Default Do I need a induction kit?

Hi there
I'm currently on the look out for a md321h looking to go for a fast spooly car. The question is I have a green panel filter. Will this need to be replaced with a induction kit? If so can people recommend me one please? I already have 650 injectors fully de catted 3 port
Thanks all

hi

i think you will be ok with the standard airbox up to and around 400bhp which is about the limit on a 321h....

lichfields own t25 was at about 420 ish and that was standard airbox.

each to their own on this one but if there were massive gains to be had i would have one by now...

your probably talkin about 3 or 4 brake, not worth it imo

afaik leave it be mate, im sure someone will be along with a different opinion but after 20 yrs of fff ing about with induction kits i really dont see the point.... unless its the sucking sound your after ?....
bit like a dump valve, sound like fast and furious but dont improve the car any.....
btw im looking at 650 's and a sc40/42 to get to about 400 with a remap..... let me know how you get on
