You won't need to rolling road it after fitting an induction kit. Only probs i've heard of is with the K&N type airfilters ( any cone type ), that when you floor the throttle it can cause the car to stutter because the filter is drawing in hot air from the engine. Best bet is to get an enclosed filter such as the BMC, Green or Pro-comp. I had a Pipercross cone filter on my VTS and changed it for a Green enclosed. Much better. smileys/smiley4.gif
