courtster Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 Anyone heard of anyone fitting a Blitz SUS Induction kit for the K-series? Blitz are a big aftermarket Jap car part manufacturer it seems from the UK website. Looks like an interesting product made entirely of stainless steel. Bet it gives a cracking induction noise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bramble111s Posted February 24, 2004 Share Posted February 24, 2004 Is the induction the bit that goes PHISH when gear changing at speed?, if so then this is my favorite part of the car! Does this kit make it a bigger, louder PHISH??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does this kit make it a bigger, louder PHISH??? Have you got a Turbo With the induction kit you will hear a sucking noise on flooring it which will then turn to a growl which theeeennnn makes you go deaf for half an hour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott_Mac Posted February 24, 2004 Share Posted February 24, 2004 There was one for sale on eBay a while back.. It looks a bit like a K&N to me, but it claimed a hose to seal off the inlet like the Hurricane etc... To be honest, given the price, i'd buy a Hurricane as it is designed for the car, and is available in a variety of fetching colours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappydog Posted February 24, 2004 Share Posted February 24, 2004 Is the induction the bit that goes PHISH when gear changing at speed?,if so then this is my favorite part of the car! Does this kit make it a bigger, louder PHISH??? No, that's the dump valve on a turbo car. Induction goes ROAR-ROAR! Tests of the Blitz kit on the Impreza showed it was slightly better than all the fabric based cone filters in terms of flow. However it was crap at filtration and generally considered really bad news because of potential problems of dirt ingress into the engine. Now this may not be an issue with the K-series, but would you risk it? BTW have you seen the new Carbon bodied Hurricane? Looks really nice and still relatively cheap. IMHO the hurricane is really good VFM and not likely to perform any less than the more expensive ITGs etc (unless you are going for 190hp+) Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bramble111s Posted February 24, 2004 Share Posted February 24, 2004 Cheers Andy, Oh yes, should have know it was the dump valve. I really love this bit! james Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kris H Posted February 28, 2004 Share Posted February 28, 2004 I dithered around for ages making my mind up and eventually went for a hurricane and am glad that I did. Nice growl and roar, and breathing a little easier than the cack standard intake on the S2 111s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mart Green Posted February 28, 2004 Share Posted February 28, 2004 The ITG filter kit is great and makes a cracking sound when you floor the throttle. Bit expensive at over £450 though. Also improves the overall in cabin sound by a mile, although a sports exhaust is still on the must have list. Bell & Colvill ss sports exhaust being fitted next Thursday...can't wait!
