I have worked my ass off this week and clocked a sweaty 80 hours so I am going to treat myself! I'm thinking either a decat or induction kit. The car had the exhaust modification done at the start of the week so it's only a little louder than stock. My main question is, are the budget decat pipes available actually any good? I'm happy to pay more, didn't know if I needed to? And is my best bet really the fipk?

 

With no other mods a decat won't do a lot.

Intake wise, do a search as there are literally thousands of topics.

Comgrats on the hard graft though!

 

Good graft did a 60 hour week a couple of times for a nice 'kit' for my s.

Just get an aem v2

 

Interesting, would it make much difference in noise if not performance?
Thank you for your reply!

 

I have used the search option on here loads since I got the car last month and haven't heard alot about the AEM v2!
Thank you for your reply!

 

It might sound a touch different as there's less to absorb sound, but won't be much.

AEM V2 is very popular (i got 380 ish results on the search) I use it on my race S2000.

 

I will search the AEM specifically and have a read. Cheers!

 

umm I get our sales bonus this month. Now do I spend it on Layla ( my S - don't ask) or something else.

 

Ah, a local

 

Induction kits are perhaps the biggest rip off going.

For a kick off, K&N filters are made in a sh1tty unit and cost a couple of quid each. I'd be amazed if the others differ TBH.

After all, pipe is just pipe and if you think paying £300 for an induction kit is getting you anything other than a £295 sticker, you're mistaken.

Buy a cheap ebay one for the piping and stick a re-cleanable filter on the end - sponge one is best.
