Yet another question.....

Are the above any good, do they cause any running issues and where abouts do they go in the bay?

More importantly; do they make the flutter noise any louder? I can just about here it now when I change gear, but that's really not good enough!

Take the battery and battery tray out to ease fitment and get hold of a few more Jublee clips as well
tricky job to do but well worth it if you take your time and do it right.

Just seen a picture of one and tbh, it doesn't look any different from the normal induction kit - I thought it was supposed to be the equivalent of Piper's Viper kit?

My first one had the Gen2 fitted. Was a bit of a twat to fit, under the battery and I lost the wee waterproof bag that covers it

I wasn't too impressed for 200 quid to be honest, so my new FRS isn't getting one that's for sure!
