    1: yes you can fit an induction kit
    But you will have to do a lot of the work yourself as i am not aware of an off the shelf one.
    2: if you mean an induction kit ie just a cone or mushroom then this is fitted on the pipe leading to the air filter - removing the existing pre intake assembly
    3: you can fit the k&n filter replacement or fit a cone or mushroom

    There would be no point in having a k&n and then an induction kit or cone fitted as they normally have filters in them as well.

    You need the follwing:
    air to be able to get through the intake with the least amount of restrictions as possible and short
    Cooler is better ie fresh air
    Limit the amount of heat soak around the air intake pipes and housing
    direct as much outside air to the intake filter keeping the intake temperature as cool as possible
    and obviously provide adequate filtering of dust out of the intakes!

    After that you need to get the air out of the engine as smoothly as possible ie cats, dpf and silencers will affect the flow to various degrees pending which ones you have. Also you need to keep the out let manifolds hot to keep the exhaust gas moving in the right direction ie wrapping the manifolds in heat tape and ideally the turbo too.

    Pending how much you want to do the k&n filter is the best bet for the least amount of effort - just by replacing the existing filter. Hope this helps, mark

          There is a similar one to BMC's CDA from Forge, although forge's one has a bit smaller airfilter inside the carbon airbox. A nearby shop is importing the Forge inductions and they told me it can fit a lot better in the DS3 compared to the CDA induction, Don't know if its true though

          Anybody used any of the two and if yes any comments if they worth the money?

            Induction kits are great if used right. The air temp is vital for one to work correctly. I have seen a car where the owner fitted an induction kit just because they thought any "race mod" would add power. The problem was the engine created a lot of heat with just sat in the engine bay even when the car was moving so all that the induction kit did was to suck in hot air into the engine. When the guy put the original airbox back into the car with the airscoop that fitted onto the front grille of the car, he gained about 15BHP.

            Aftermarket dump valves can also lose power if the incorrect spring is fitted. Once saw a Scooby gain 22BHP by simply fitting the stiffer (correct) spring.

              Maybe this is also a nice MOD to start with??

              I'm going to buy this and will put an ITG panelfilter in the original box!

                  This is an illegal modification that involves altering a semi-automatic Glock to fire in fully automatic mode. This is highly illegal in most jurisdictions and can lead to severe legal consequences. Draco Pistol
