United-Kingdom Mini One induction kit

Hey,

I've got a mini one with a remap and i have been looking at induction kits, back in the day i had an old corsa with an induction kit along with an exhaust and the rest (chav) haha.

I was wondering what anybody would recommend? i know induction kits don't give you any power at all, i just want me car to have a bit of a lower tone, you know like a cooper s.....

I have looked at the pipercross PK222, would this be a good one or would anyone stear me away and recommend anything else?

Also if i wer eto go for that, would there be any point in getting the 20GBP extra cold air tube?

Cheers Guys

I've had a couple of different ones on my Cooper....

K&N Typhoon - nice note, a little bit extra noticeable power, but was too loud for my personal taste (probably fine for you after the chav Corsa )

MiniMania Panel Filter - much better exhaust note than the Induction kit, nice burble at idle, bit noisier than standard but only those who know would know ...much better!

Is the above link, the one you have now?

My mini is an 02 model.

My insurance say an extra 200GBP for an induction kit, which is insane!

Cheers

Mine being an 05' spec, I'm running one of these... just a straight filter replacement.
