Surely a less restrictive induction system allows more air to be sucked into the engine easier. quote: [Edited on 21-10-2003 by MikeH] | |

quote: this is not fact 1st run gave the viper = 119bhp 2nd run gave the K+N = 110bhp 3rd run gave the panel + box = 114bhp where is N=3 all I see is N=1 what where the results for the wheel power. also whats the graph actually like. peak power means feck all unless it's strong under the graph. provide the printouts | |

quote: no drillign the airbox does not affect your air/fuel ratio. the power gain is down to the engine not having to suck as hard and so the wheels see the power that the airbox was removing | |

i bought a k&n, whick sounded quality for the first couple of months, and i did notice a difference in throttle response. after a few months though the sound deteriorates. | |

does drilling the airbox change the air to fuel ratio and can this damage your piston's and there bore's. | |

Dont forget to take the pipe out of the top of the airbox, will be the best bhp per pound air filter you can get for a corsa then. | |

I got a K&N panel filter in a drilled box on my GSI sounds so good, take out the plastic pipe thats in the box for a more resonating sound, the cotton gauze in a K&N is so much better than foam filters | |

wot about if you put a fan near to the airbox blowing cold air in, would that work. wots the best panal filter to go for. | |

Stick with the drilled air box and get a performance panel filter, induction kits normally put the power down on corsas cos they suck on hot air off the engine, get some cold air feeds to ya drilled box and that will sort ya, you wont notice the difference it benifits the mods you do in the future, might make throttle feel a bit more responsive and might let the engine rev a bit harder at top end but thats all 3bhp i think you are likely to gain | |

if u want to increase performance then got for a sealed type induction kit, i.e. a pipercross viper | |

I drilled my airbox today and now the car sounds like a beast, but it has not improved my performance. |
