Hi Folks

I usually spend time on the S'Series forum but just had a look at the list and found you..

Anyway, I am becomming tempted by an induction kit, primarily for added noise factor and perhaps slightly more kick....are they any good, which is best for the type-r's ?

I have the daddy of Type-R's......the 2.2 Accord

Cheers

I can't comment on performance for a type-r but if you thought the thing was loud before then an induction kit will take it up a few decibels.

An open cone will give a scary raspy roar while an enclosed cone like my bmc will give a deap throat growl.

Look on www.honda-r.org for a thread.
The open cones just suck warm air in, so give better airflow but due to the warmer air gives only the same BHP.
Go for one of the enclosed cones.

They do a filter called the iceman or something.

It is a cold air filter direct into throttle body and is around £150.

I am thinking of getting one for my "daddy" type-r.
