which one the bmc or the viper? The bmc was good but too big to get a cold air feed too so ive replaced it with a viper. I havent even had a chance to drive it with the viper kit yet as my ecu is dead. ill let you know when its on the road again m8.

Always heard bad things about XE's and induction kits so wondered how effective the sealed ones were.

thanks for the replys. Its supposed to have a lightened & balanced flywheel, fast road cams and had a ecu remap although i have no proof (maybe just the sales patta to make me buy it) although it is very quick ive had her to 143mph with about 3/400 revs left.

XEs dont like the cone filters as they suck in alot of heat inside the smaller engine bay. Ive heard on migweb that the BMC and Viper Kits have seen good gains on the XE engine. The bloke i bough tthe viper from said the same about his XE nova that it came off.
