SS Inductions have also been known through the car scene as SS Re-Ductions... a test was done on one web site and it was actually proven that they cause soem vehicles to lose power...

V6's are fine with them, I wouldn't put one on a gen3 though.

$350 pp if you are interested.

overpriced IMO

"... a test was done on a site of my cousins uncles 3 legged dogs keeper and it said..."

Link to the site and be specific as to what sort of engine it was fitted to...

I know i got gains in throttle response from my and abit of power with a K&N filter too...

Probably slightly over priced but SO easy to install!

There are other options that area cheaper "Euger" or something and you could probably mod that abit to give the same flows @ an SS Inductions one.

Good Luck

Aunger. The opening that sits on top of the radiator isn't as large as the SS one.

^^^ Thats the one... but as i said u could mod that up fairly easy...

TO those have the scoop that bolts onto the aircon radiator to kick up air from the grill vents?

 

[Not_An_Abba_Fan]

No, they are similar to the SS kit, basically just a bigger intake into the air box and an OTR CAI. The Aunger one has smaller ducting and a smaller inlet and looks squarer and more retro than the SS one. Regarding the grille vents, thats what I am doing to my VS, but I have to cut the holes out of the top of the bumper.

i got the SS induction kit, and i was very happy with it mate, i notice throttle response was alot better and you can notice a bit more power with it aswell, it also uses less fuel with it, i havent changed my filter yet to a K & N panel either, it just got the stock one atm, so yeah if anything it'll probably pay it self off with less fuel consumtion, in the long run that is

^^^ Good point about fuel consumption... i noticed i got a couple more k's outta a tank after the kit...

Though i think u need an exhaust to balance the system out properly
