From what I've been told the only induction kit worth looking at is the ITG Maxogen.

Agreed, it may be pricey but it is definately the best IK on the market. Only thing stopping me buying one of these is there is no cold feed to the airbox, it just takes in air from the gap between the battery and headlight. Trying to work out if this is good enough or how you could mount a cold feed to this area?

all you need is a k&n panel filter with a cold feed to the floor. frees the engine up no end....nicer whistle and doesnt do too bad on juice.....................www.cardomain.com/id/beastus

^^^^^^^^^^

It looks like the standard renault airbox has two feeds; one pipe from just behind the battery and one pipe which runs down to the bottom of the front bumper / wheel arch which I understand is controlled by a valve and only opens mid way through the rev range to assit with low down torque?

The ITG Maxogen looks like a nice piece of kit and has been recommended to me many times, most recently by Mark Fish.

What all the aftermarket air-intakes for the 182 have in common is that recommend to remove the valve unit, providing maximum air-flow throughout the rev range.

I believe that simular results could be achieved by removing the valve and replacing the std air pipe with a larger diameter unit using the std Renault air-box with a replacement panel filter ie ITG or K&N etc.

If I get time next weekend I might give it a go.

Could that be a the reason for the 5k power surge, saw a thread last week where they were trying to figure out why some have a kick and some have a progressive surge.

Could be down a slightly restrictive lower air intake - due to manufacture or placement/fitment during assembly??????
