i was gonna do that until i decided not to...lol well i got a bfo now and u know...impossible!

The noise is quieter normal driving but as people have said it sounds good when caining it!!!

i've just done it :) i managed to get the top of the box back on too.


it louder than it used to be and it pulls harder :D

Gambit: - Aye, would have said so, the noise resonates round the box, sounds really good when flooring it and when going up hills lol, It's probs worth doing it just for the noise difference

yep thats what i was thinkin, hence the noise question

M4tt : -

Aint much of a tight fit if you've decided to leave the top of the air box off. Its simple as pie to do too:)

once youve cut the original box why not use bigger hose?

Why not just use a panel filter instead..lol

is there a noise difference though with it still being an enclosed box?

yeah, I've done the same but couldnt fit the top of the airbox back on coz my pipercross is too big. seems to pull through the gears a hell of a lot better since i did it though, no noticable flat spots either. Defo recommend it :D

i think it's a good idea, sheilds the filter from the engine heat.

i would do the same but my pipercross is too big to fit in the box :(

I did this the other day to my filter and was just wondering if anyone thought that it will help my engine, it feels slightly smoother in traffic and is not so reluctant to get going afterwards, but is it a good idea having it in there:boggle:

Any thoughts???:thumbs:
