Induction kit

[Kyle Everett]

Hi all, hope we are all well. Wondering what induction kit is being used in their leon if it worth the money. If not what mods we using then. Mine at the moment is plain and a bit boring ... what ideas what got. I drive a 09 Seat leon 2.0 tdi 138hp.
Thanks all

Not really needed, people happily run well above 200bhp with the stock 170 setup.

Probably better off going for a panel filter to be honest, we have a range of panel filters coming pretty soon as well so should have one to suit

What do you suggest then mate

 

[R3k1355]

As above, a panel filter or just leave it as is cos you won't see any performance gain.

You can fit one if you really want, but it's a lot of hassle for something that doesn't really do anything.

So if you are in no huge rush, then we have our own range of panel filters coming in the next month or two, your vehicle is one we will be stocking them for. In terms of upgrade you won’t get much in the way of noise, however it will give better airflow. They also don’t need replacing on services, as they can be cleaned and reused with no detriment to it. If you drop me a PM I can let you know any further details on them, I’ve got a few images as well.

Remap will see near 170bhp, best bang for your buck for sure.

Best option is remap like you say right, I know a few people that go for the chips?

 

[R3k1355]

Nah, chips aren't as good and usually cost as much as a decent remap anyway.

Diesels run on excess air

don’t waste your money, new paper OEM filter every service or every other service is the best.

Performance panel filters all they do is let more crap through, and on a turbo car the last thing you want is less filtration.
