Hello, I'm a newby.

Got an IS200 sport on a T plate and im wanting to fit an induction kit.

Been to my local car store and they can't get hold of anything appart from a bodge-it kit, various pipes then an HKS filter.

Have looked on prolex and seen one there, prolex's own which seems quite good, anybody got any experiences with these and know how easy they are to fit?

Once fitted does the car need to be tuned after, if the fuel freezes in the cold and where that little plug will go (air flow/mass sensor maybe)

I'v also got a 2 point Cusco strut brace (front and rear) will this hit an induction kit?

Or should i just keep with the stock filter, is there any advantages to an induction kit?

Thanks for taking a look and look forward to any help

Thats the place for modifying your Lex! Can i suggest the Kazama exhaust as well...with the induction kit and a few miles running in it sounds sweet as a nut!

Does the Kazama exhaust make alot of noise?

I'm feeling like going noisey when I get some cash together I imagine it will be great with an induction kit on at 4k-5k revs...lol

It has a very nice rumbling too it, especially when it gets warm. Sounds really nice driving through a tunnel at about 70 in 6th then putting your foot down.

Don't really notice any droning noise at cruising speed, only when you put your foot down.

A vid of mine before it was supercharged.

what induction kit is better the prolex one or This one.

im going to be buying one in the next couple of days , and was defo going for the prolex one but i have now seen the one on eBay, so what does everyone think

Posted

Avoid that seller by all accounts, tommythejoiner. Probably sell you a drain pipe with a tesco bag on the end claiming excellent filteration.

cheers mate, thats enough info for me Prolex it is then :D

i know hes takene some flak but my bonnet was fine, was a JAE but stlil didnt check i till i got it, back anythng over eBay is watched and u buy what u get, if the picture is a is200 and the title and description is somethings else READ what your buying, i trust him but never heard any reviews with that inductuon kit.

P.S. had way to much to drick sorrty for the posat

The other kit mentioned on eBay didnt look to have the filter well positioned IMHO reckon it would get loads of hot air ! LHD car as well !
