Ok lookin to get a new induction for my 306 D Turbo......

I've asked on a few Pug sites but to not much avail....

But whats the best kinda induction to have on a Turbo? I remember Vibs once sayin that enclosed is bad on a Turbo motor........but i've had a few ppl recommend the BMC carbon filter set up thingy........

So wot i wanna know is, do i go for an open cone? Uprated Panel filter or summat else?

Or any other suggestions?

cheers

i use open cone, not worth buying one of those things, plus the dirt filtration on the bmc is almost non existant.

oh rite........wot bout going back to my good old air box Kris? Its a metal cased "bucket".............is this classed as enclosed? And will it hinder me, when compared to a cone?

I'm gonna put alu ducting all the way from near the turbo to the filter woteva i do

Its just that the induction kits cost like £90+ for my car.....so sod that. Ideally i need a universal one that will still do a good filtration job without losing me power?

Put a decent replacement air fitler element in the std box, green or K&N etc be the best, reduce and hot air problems
