ive been driving around all evening hardly any petrol left at this stage:lol:

the sound is just brilliant:D

next thing is to get some cold air feeds in a block up that other pipe

its only when u take it apart u see how restrictive of a setup it is

would recomend it to anyone to do it.

i used to have an 8v too. i drilled my airbox but left all of that plugged in and it worked fine. make sure you get a good cold air feed.

dont worry about any of it mate, try and give the box a good cold air feed though.

Right lads i just drilled my air box. It absoulultly brilliant. the roar is an amazing difference. I think its a bit quicker to but thats probably just me wishing it was. its only a 1.2 8v.

Right my questions

1. Do i need the hot air feed from the exhaust? i have taking it off.

2. Do i need the cold air feed piece that comes on the car? I also taken this off.

3. Theres a wire than was going to a thing inside the air box that is some sort of flap of some sort. do i leave this wire on? Whats it for? i have also left this off?

Some answers wqould be greatly appreciated.

Cheers:thumbs:
