Came across the Fujita RAM intake for the NC seems reasonably priced.

Sometimes I wonder if we are all kidding ourselves with these mods. Does my car drive any better with the air intake? Don't know and I can't be bothered putting the original stuff back on to check, ha-ha.... The manufacturer says you do gain 0.008595kw, so I guess the car is so much quicker now :lol: ....sorry....

NC sold, but will return one day.......

Well, he zooms past me on the straight at QR and my accelerator pedal is squished to the floor. Methinks he is putting proton pills in the tank :? :)

NB throttle response > NC throttle response

I'm talking stock for stock, and i'm talking NB vs an NC with DSC. Can't comment on the non-DSC NC, haven't dríven one.

non-DSC NC.... say that three times fast.

Nothing to do with exit speed if he slipstreams you for a couple of hundred metres on the straight and then pulls out and slips by :shock:
