Not sure where you'd get the BFO cone from any more tbh.

Only a couple of the filters actually come with a heat shield - on cars where it really is a problem.

A cold air feed or two and a standard sized cone will be more than ample on the Corsa C. You could go for something a bit more interesting like the Viper but you'll end up spending three times as much.

cheers guys, if those filters dnt come with the heat shield i could jus go for the BFO cone. how would i go about making a heat shield for that tho. Or is it a case of becasue they do one for my model car its designed and positioned so it doesnt suck in loads of hot air?

I think they've just used a generic image for that product, which will just annoy you more when you receive it and there's no heat shield!
For a tenner less, go for the flat top Pipercross filter - doesn't look as good visually (no Vector tip) but it's still the same great filter :thumbs:





and it saves you £10



Go on just repeat what I've already said. :rolleyes:



no you repeat what I have just said :mad:

A great alternative would have been the PVD BFO cone - 80 notes and sounded sweet.

Give Demon Tweeks a call to check on the contents of the kit - I'm not sure if the one for the C (PK191 or PK191V) has a heat shield...

Jus looked on demon tweeks. found the pipercross vector induction kit for my car (C 1.2 16v SXi) is this a good kit for the money? not lookin at spendin mass amounts on induction as its only a small engined car. But this seems to have it all, inc heatshiled. for around £84.

Have a look, or if u could suggest cheaper places for this or alternative kits? :boggle:
