Jus looked on demon tweeks. found the pipercross vector induction kit for my car (C 1.2 16v SXi) is this a good kit for the money? not lookin at spendin mass amounts on induction as its only a small engined car. But this seems to have it all, inc heatshiled. for around £84.

Have a look, or if u could suggest cheaper places for this or alternative kits?

A great alternative would have been the PVD BFO cone - 80 notes and sounded sweet.

Give Demon Tweeks a call to check on the contents of the kit - I'm not sure if the one for the C (PK191 or PK191V) has a heat shield...

I think they've just used a generic image for that product, which will just annoy you more when you receive it and there's no heat shield!
For a tenner less, go for the flat top Pipercross filter - doesn't look as good visually (no Vector tip) but it's still the same great filter

cheers guys, if those filters dnt come with the heat shield i could jus go for the BFO cone. how would i go about making a heat shield for that tho. Or is it a case of becasue they do one for my model car its designed and positioned so it doesnt suck in loads of hot air?

Not sure where you'd get the BFO cone from any more tbh.

Only a couple of the filters actually come with a heat shield - on cars where it really is a problem.

A cold air feed or two and a standard sized cone will be more than ample on the Corsa C. You could go for something a bit more interesting like the Viper but you'll end up spending three times as much.
