I should be taking delivery of my brand spanking new mini one next week and i am looking to get some sort of induction kit for it, I can see the obvious advantages of a design such as the pipercross viper. After looking about a bit on the net i seem to have found 3 things the Viper which is red, the mamba which is the same as viper only black(i think) and then this venom which seems to be a universal fitting viper???? does this still have the foam filter or is a a cotton gauze the reason i ask this is the first 2 are around £250 and the venom is only £119 can anyone shed light on this

Also could people post up where they got there viper kits from and for how much so we can all see where to go to get them cheaper

Cheers
Ollie

The venom is a universal fit with an alloy heat shield. The viper is car specific and has a carbon fibre heat shield. The carbon fibre is what creates the pric differential.
