    If you get an induction kit it's best to get an enclosed one as this will ensure cold aire being sucked in, but panel filters are by far cheaper and performance wise there's no great difference

    I believe the flat spot is actually mapped in as its the most efficient fuel air setting mixture to coincide at/with the most commonly active rev range if you get my drift? Although cam profiles will come into play as well.
