Filter/Induction
Hey, I'm thinking of putting either an induction kit in my 1.1 or a filter however i dont have much to spend £30 max, i know that wont get me much but does any body know of some which sound good? as im not going for performance. I know it must be an open filter how ever i cant find what im looking for using search.
Any help would be great 
Car - Saxo 1.1i X (spi) [P reg]
also is their any fitting instructions, as im new to all this.
Thanks

I have a replacement K&N filter for my vtr and any extra induction noise isn't audible to be honest. Might add 0.3-1.5 bhp or something though.

that maxpower filter will make your car roar, but will make it sound really hollow. (dont know if thats right way to describe it) plus its mae of metal. no good for performance as itll soak the heat.

personally if i was you i would wait and save up for a decent air filter, the max power ones are really a waste of time, get a piperX or a green with a cold air feed
