hi can anyone tell me what the standard b.h.p is for a 54 plate octy vrs , and also is the pipercross viper air filter any good

180bhp like every other standard mk1 vRS and i've heard they are good but pricey.

Dont do it lad! phone star or jabba and get one of their recommended kits! Then at least you know its tried and tested

jabba? £250 for a cone filter and bent bit of aluminium? no thanks.

i have a BMC CDA on mine and it makes a lovely noise, not really loud but quite mean sounding

wot's a bmc cda when it's at home then !!!

i'm just after a nice sound really, had a pipercross induction kit on my mini and it sounded awsome

bmc is the make, the CDA is a sealed carbon shielded air intake, i'll go find a link.

this is one

that looks nice how much? and does it sound nice

have listen if you like if your coming down to the portsmouth rolling road day in a few weeks

price wise i think they are around £150 but can't really remember

portsmouth!!! that's just a tad to far for me !!!but £150 for the cold air indution kit is quite good

Besides the noise, will it add any bhp before/after remap compared to standard?

some say yes some say no, it does let the engine rev a bit more freely though.

this is one

I've one :) Looks good and sounds great :D

Mine was about

Both Beretta & me (and most likley a few others) have a CAI which cost 40 squids! Does the job, looks good & has the sound.

Don't be fooled thinking "pay big money & get big increases".

Do some searching mate before you shell out lodsa the Queens Shillings!

Hold fire ombrey, gotta do sum serchin, enit!

Right ho.

Got the CAI from a member on this site. I cleaned out my PM section some time ago, must have lost it then.

I'm sure if you (s) do a bit of searching, you'll come up trumps.

Nice bit of kit comes complete with big cone shaped air filter, fitted inside the nearside wing, connected to the inlet system via a 3" (or 4") polished ally tube & silicon connector. All the ancillary pipework is included and stainless clips.

sounds like an alloy version of a carbonio, goochie's mate made them and flogged them on ebay i believe

ebay rings a bell bengie, got mine on here.

Now running and ABD Racing CAI on my Octy vRS, but can confirm the e-bay one is very good value for money, but really does need and bigger and better filter to go with it if the engine is remapped, try a green or K&N filter.

Think we got ours from John on maximumpowered.co.uk and he was cheaper than the one now on flea-bay and it included postage.

I think that was his contact details, but if you use the search, this was covered a while ago.
