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.

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 £250-£299

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