Hi guys,

I'm a newbie and have only had my Mk2 FR for a couple of weeks.

What induction kits do you have or are available for the 170 FR HDI?

Cheers

Welcome to the forum mate. The engine in the FR TDI is a PD (Pump Duse) engine not a HDI, anyways as for induction kit, the usual suspects such as PiperX, K&N, BMC all have induction kits for the Leon (also at varying costs)
Whether they are a big improvement over the standard OEM set up is another thing. I have found that replacing the standard Panel filter was enough but have been looking at getting a cold air induction kit for my PD140 TDI.

Would agree with alx_chung, your best gain would be with a revised FMIC setup [ the diesel induction has to be large capacity due to the fact diesels draw more air in ALL THE TIME compared with a petrol unit]
