How do these fair against a home brew cone in the inner wing?
From what I gather......a induction kit like an ITG or a BMC are the more 'professional' way to take an air feed for the engine......and the system is quieter.

An open cone in the wheelarch is just as effective mod but can be easily half the cost. Only problem is the filter is exposed to the elements and can get dirty quicker being so close to the ground. If you like the roar sound then generally these set ups are louder than the 'enclosed' set ups like BMC and ITG.

There are lots of pros and cons with each set up......and overall the performance advantages are similar although the only true way to test the best system is to have one of each and rolling road all 3 on the same day and giving each set up a set time to adjust.

I personally am going for the BMC CDA even though like you I am unemployed at the minute and my bank balance in 'critical'
