| i just been looking at some air filters and induction kits for my 230K on www.green-filters.co.uk. however it only did the induction kit for the 230K from 2000 onwards and the engine has 197 bhp mine was made in late 99 was just wondering what the differance between the 2 engines were and if i could fit this induction kit on the earlier spec engine plus would the induction kit make more of a differance than a green air filter in terms of power and noise thanks |

| Does the induction kit suck up hot air from the engine bay? If so you may be better of with an "original" type green filter

| I would go for Green filters, I used to have K&N's on my previous cars but so far the Green filters are very good.
