Induction Kit

Where is the best place to get an induction kit for a 1.0 K11 micra?

How easy are they to fit?

Cheers

get a universal one for £20-£30 that sits on top of the tb. its simple to fit, just take off the standrad air box and put the filter on (tighten the jubile clip with a screw driver) done! it should give you instructions with the filter anyway.

will a cheapo one really make that much difference though?

Easy job to fit.

I got mine off of e-bay.

or take advantage of the club discount.

they all do the same job you may lose power with a filter that is sat on the tb, as the standrad filter is boxed in and can get more cold air! so the best thing to do is get a universal one with a cold air feed or get an uprated/aftermarket panel filter.

just had a quick look on ebay - I guess something like this would do the trick??

or

theres this one: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Green-Cotton-...ryZ36680QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
it says it's for 1.3 micra - surely it would be ok on a 1.0?

Cheers!

Sorry if this a bit of n00b question - but this is my first car!

same throttle body on the 1 and 1.3, so filter will fit!

If you can, get the Green one, it will fit perfectly and they sound awesome, I fitted one to my girlfriends 1.0. I forgot how good it sounds until I took it our for a spin last night and got all of the scallies looking!!! LOL!

The other good thing with the Green one is that it comes with the breather filter too so you don't need to buy one of them afterwards.
