KTR Induction Kit Vs K&N Panel Filter

[Luc]

Is the £200 KTR induction kit worth it over the £55 K&N panel filter (i assume so) and is getting either really worth it?

The KTR kit adds some proper noise but not much, if any, performance.

I have not used a K&N kit so I could not tell you if there is any difference to a standard filter.

Depends what you're looking for. If you want to get every last 0.1 bhp out of your car then a panel filter in the factory airbox is going to be better. but if you want big intake noise then the KTR is what you want but you lose a bit of power on losing the factory cold air feeds

Alright thanks realistically neither are actually gonna make a noticeable difference so I might just go with the ktr for the noise

Thanks might go with KTR for the sound tbf cause neither are gonna add noticeable performance i doubt and itll look nice in the engine bay

I would get a V6 airbox,not much noise but good gains.

Quite a lot more expensive tho no? And are the gains actually gonna be noticeable when I'm driving?

It is about 200 from rpd,I definitely noticed a difference when I fitted mine,there is some HP to gain can't remember exactly as the stock airbox size is a bit restrictive.

Never heard of that before thanks I'll have a look. How does the power/torque and sound compare to the ktr?

Can't comment on the KTR induction kit as I've never had it. The product details have stats on potential increases. These were based on my car that had only a panel filter and no map. YMMV.

There's some details on the Facebook groups. A fair few have purchased by a group buy.

Thanks for the info. Sorry I missed the bit where it says the gains but I'll definitely look into that one
