Hi, it all depends on what sort of money you want to throw at it....

A good induction kit should be around £100. Try something like a K&N viper or something similar. They look pretty nice under the bonnet to. Or any of the mushroom filters will release a few horses. Be aware though, despite what the adverts say, induction kits and any air filters will only get you around 5-10hp on standard engine.

Im sure you know if your driving an evo, the exhaust will be loud what ever you put on there... A good Cat-Back system will get you a couple more bhp. Though if you want to go all out, get a full system. Down pipe, de-cat, and cat back. A 3" system will give you a noticeable increase in power. The de-cat is the thing that will make a difference, it is effectivly remving a filter from the exhaust. Though remember to keep it, as you'll need to put it back every year for the MOT.

You can get everything above from Ebay for less than £500 all in. Just remember, without changing boost, engine managment etc. Your hp gains wont to that much, but exhausts induction kits are a good start.

Good luck, Steve

Hi,
sgbbarker31 has given you some sound advice, all depends really on how much you want to spend and if you want new or used.

I have a friend that deals in imports and he buys cars direct from Japan to break in the uk. They all come with a host of gadgets that are the best.

I would suggest that you ring 07853355415 and speak to this guy before you buy from any where else. He can deliver next day and has 4 bays where he can even fit the parts for you!!!

A 2.5 inch straight through will do the job and with a mushroom and a change of plugs you will see good gains.

Any bigger than that and you will suffer loss of boost in the upper rev range and on motorway drives.

Good luck and keep us posted right here.

El
