GSR Induction kit will be fitted soon.....less than two weeks until it is on! Starting to have weird dreams about the Police telling me to keep the noise down and slow down!

I'm sure that won't happen. You're not in Fast and Furious with massive blow off noises. You're in a DS3, not a Skyline.

The Citroen alloy pedals do screw to the existing pedals and the others you looked at pictured up above look as if they also screw onto your existing pedals too.Screws are usually little self tapping ones.

Thanks! A year of careful consideration and throwing caution to the wind in equal measure.....it`s been a fun ride so far!

It's difficult to know when enough is enough taste-wise! Quick question about the pedal set; do they screw in in place of the existing aluminium foot pedals directly?

The pedal set pictured above are best shopped around for on Amazon or Ebay,I don`t have the all metal set shown above,but several members do.Online will be cheapest though and you can easily find them by searching for DS3 Alloy Pedal Set or similar. Hope this helps too. Happy Modifying mate!

Appreciate you looking into it for me Did find that exact set on ebay; http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/4009899781...84.m1436.l2649 but just shelled out for rear LED light upgrades so £63 seems a lot :/ Like what you've done with the car Jez

GSR Induction Kit bought and paid for


Well there are pros and cons to every system and the cost or money we are prepared to spend can have a major bearing on this.

There have been many debates about which induction kit to use or not,cold feed pipes etc.GSR gave their explanation on this too.
Bottom line is I will never have a 200bhp+ monster with catch cans, a BOV or chrome pipes in my engine bay due to having an HDI diesel engine.

So, informed by the major fact that Mr Aucott had one in his Transformer edition and I liked the sound of his car,I have chosen a simple modification developed for the HDI engine.
If it makes you happy when you`re driving it then no harm done,if it breaks your engine,then I would be concerned.

Thanks for your input guys.

When the time comes I will probably stick a K&N cone filter on too and upgrade the exhaust!


P.S. I am no expert in these matters and I`m sure it shows,just been having fun for the past year with additions/modifications.

Happy modifying. Jez.

[lfcrule1972]

Yeah that's what I thought too SfG, I have better things to spend the £180 on

Mmmm, I've never been sold by these, the air cone is at the back of the engine, away from the cold air and it just feels like a lot of money mod for not much gain. Obvs I'm prepared to be swayed by your thoughts though Jez

From what ive read they give zero - negligible performance gain but do change the engine note. I stuck a Pipecross filter in which seems to work ok as the fee is still from the front of the car.
