bmc induction kit

[winder]

hello
ive got a vtr and i want to fit my bmc kit at the weekend, just wondering what size crank case filter i need and how many. i look at the engine and i have two pipes, one from the front as normal and then another one behind the oem air box. also the magnecor ignition leads,are they any good?

i dont know the sizes off the top of my head, easiest way would be to take them off and measure them, i seem to remember 19mm being kicked around but as i say better to measure.

I dont really beleive in this uprated ignition lead stuff, as long as the ones you have are in good condition they should work as well as you need, but thats just my opinion

cheers mate. just one more question, i have some alloys which i had on my fiat that fit my vtr hubs perfectly. the only thing is they are two wide. i have tried spacers but they dont work. what is the biggest width you can have on a saxo. ie 6.5 or 7.0

[Scott]

do the bolt holes line up?

im unsure exactly on how wide but 18s will go under the standard arches and they are usually 215 widewhich is roughly 8.5 wide mind you say bye bye to full lock.

Whats the PCD and offset of the wheels?

[winder]

i dont know what the pcd or off set is. me and my mate tried them and the holes line up perfect but tyres rub on a little bolt that comes off the strut on the front and they rub on torsion bar on the back. its only the tyres though and where they bulge out. if i got lower profile tyres do you think that would solve it?

[Scott]

it might a little, try using larger spacers?

thing is, if i use 9mm there wont be any ring left in the middle of the hub for the wheel to align on so it will be just resting on the bolts, what do ya reckon?
