i fitted a bfo to my 1.2 16v, had it on for a few days, then put in a cold feed ducting pipe, sounds louder, better response, so i think its worthwhile.

how do u clean those bfo cones?

got it from halfords, the stuff that is compressed then u pull it to the length and shape u want.
mine goes from the left of the cone down to the bottom grill which is now mesh with a hole for the ducting to stick thru
