quote: seriously? dude, extending the length of the inlet tract by that much probably wont help performance much at all. Let the air come to the filter, not the other way around. Also, it would get a whole lotta crap on it and you would be forever cleaning it in the dump that is the UK | |

I got mine because out of everything that was uninteresting, the Corsa was closest to my Nova. | |

quote: £45 for a K&N. £30 for a Pipercross. When you say "much difference" I'm assuming you're on about power... because an induction kit on the Corsa certainly improves throttle response and gives a nice induction note. | |

tbh most corsas imo respond better with panel filter, less flat spots, more economical | |

but you can get a air filter that is shaped like a k& n in a cone without all the pipes | |

air filter is prob just a replacement element and will cost about £30 for a K+N | |

induction kit is a pod shaped foam or cotton construction through which air passes to reach the inlet. air filter sits in the normal filter box housing | |
