Hi Guys,

Just wondered if any of you guys knew what the best induction kit out there for performance and noise would be?

A Kit to fit the R56 Cooper S

Thanks for your input

For performance, not convinced there is any benefit.

Apparently 10bhp from a cold air intake system.....

Also claims it unlocks the noise of the turbo......

Have to agree - I'd be extremely displeased if I had a petrol car sounding like this.... but maybe that's just me! :smilewinkgrin:

Can I have some popcorn as well?? :D :popcorn:

glad to hear that this Mini also has the diesel sound engine quality.:laugh:

However I think it is only right and proper that you young guys would want an induction kit, Dump Valve and samco hoses etc etc. You shouldn't listen to any of the olders farts on this website:yes nod:
