I had the Green scoop and although not as nice looking or as good quality as the one pictured at the begining it IS a straight fit as shown below.

(The Blue Silicone Hose and Breather where not included for £200 I was dissapointed)
I was overall dissapointed with the Green as no 90' hose was supplied with the kit, also in terms of performance I personally found it poor from a standing start but once on the move and air was being forced through the two TINY holes in the slam panel ie motorway speeds it was very good.

that blue pipe looks well restrictive as from the look of the bow in the middle its making the internal diameter smaller thus not getting as much air through

yeh doesn't look like a 90 degree pipe, more like 110-120 degree.
I think I'm gonna go for a Raceland kit like in the first picture but I don't want VTS written on it....

riggsy got for an evosport carbon enclosed one, £50 brand new, so dont bother wasting £200 on an bmc for an extra 2-3bhp instead buy one of these for £50 and then with the £150 u save get a new manifold

Yer I was gutted about the Hoses, I orded it because the standard elbow looks horrorable it took 6weeks to come then it was the wrong angle!
Oh well, Totally agree with brandage ^^^ why pay more for a name and a few more pony's. I doubt a BMC would find that much more than a slightly cheaper enclosed filter.

Cheers for thinking for me Steve but i dont need a new manifold i have a 4-1 dont i :)
The only reasons im asking about this induction kit is because i have an open green one which sounds realy realy good but ill always no that its loosing power as its open!
So i thought about getting another bmc £150 for the kit then another £60ish for samco hosing....
Then saw these induction kits, most say they sound good but the power steering bottle needs moving?!
