You wont get any realistic increase in bhp but as u say you are going for sound then yes go for it although the cheaper and maybe better option would be to drill your standard airbox and fit a decent panel filter mate, Regards Paul...

I think the bfo is quite loud I have heard if thats what u are after then give it a go but i think you need a decent panel filter to make a good go of it mate something like a k + n

Other than price, there's no point in choosing a panel filter & air box over any induction kit on the 1.0 12v.

Performance is never going to be a factor, so why else would you go for an induction kit other than the induction roar... of which the BFO is one of the loudest (I've heard something that rivals it but I'm not saying ).
