Default air induction kit advice needed

just bought the st170. Would changing the air induction kit add to the preformance? Any advice on which kit to buy if any and is it easy to fit.

cant be arsed anymore with induction noise with the likes on k&n57i etc, just use a new paper element every time u change the oil&filter.

get a full stainless exhaust... and de-cat pipe first

induction kits add about 3-5bhp at the most... just make noise really


pipercross viper kits are the best to buy, but at Ł250-Ł299

Avoid oiled air filters as the oil contaminates the MAF sensor over time.
