There is only one BMC CDA kit for the whole VTS manufacturing run/
Other similar enclosed induction kits can be found here

BMCs arn't that good imo
The best all rounder is probably the Raceland from Kam Racing with the Green filter. Under £100, gives alright gains, looks pretty cool, sounds pretty good. WINNER.

I would like to know, Is there any point of having an induction kit ? I have a 99 1.1i spree and I've checked all over the net with the majority saying its a waste of money and I wont notice the difference.. is this true and if not which would be the best to purchase ??

not alot of people buy them for performance, it is very minimal if any in some cases but can give a lot better sound to the car

There is a very small and unnoticeable power gain. You won't notice it, but you will notice a grate difference in engine note! Iv gone for the raceland enclosed with green filter on my vts, sounds brilliant and looks pretty good!

to be honest on small engined normally aspirated cars will not see massive gains but personally I like a lot of induction noise.

open cone for more noise. Either this K&N for 1996-1999 models or this induction kit for later models
