Hi guys, bought a cheap 5dr corsa b (92/93) the other day and noticed something amis with the airbox, there is no air feed to it at all, however I'm unsure of how it is supposed to be assembled
There appears to be a flap on a vacuum over what I would think is the main cold air intake, however this flap seems to be closed all the time? I can get some pipework, just wanted to know the correct assembly for it, wasn't sure if there was a cold start feed somewhere....
Cheers in advance,

i think ther are 2 feeds to the air box you are referring to.1 from the front of the car (the cold air feed) and one from a tube that is attatced to the exhaust manifold cover (a hot air feed) the flap then moves accordingly to wot air it feels necessary somehow.you could just get a corsa sri 8v airbox and swap it on as this just has the 1 cold air feed.hope this helps!your best bet which ever way u choose is to go down the scrapyard and pull bits off of other corsas!lol.

I think I'll remove the flap, use that as a cold air feed and plug up the hole at the bottom.
There is no manifold cover on mine, which is why I was confused about the cold start feed.
