Im sure there are a lot of topics on this subject. But i couldnt find any specifics on it.
Can anyone recommend a cone filter for this car? Will it make a difference to the TD? What will it sound like?
What sort of exhaust suits this engine best? Am precarious about getting exhaust cus i dont want it to sound like a tractor lol.
Will i see much benefit from a Filter/backbox kit?
Also what susp kits fit the diesel corsa?

Chip, decat, closed induction kit... That should make a difference.
All of the above are very effective on a diesel. I don't know much about that particular engine though...

What about the noise situation? Will the exhaust/induction make it sound better?

Well not really. It will make it louder but I don't personally like the sound of a loude diesel. You will probably find the turbo is loude from inside which can sound quite cool though.

Hmmm loud turbo sounds good.
Somethin i forgot from the main post. Does fitting a bigger intercooler yield good effects?

These chaps are after one to RR and test power figures on if you want a good deal on chipping it.

Gains 12bhp according to that but I'm sure there is some more in there also, you would get proper verification of figures.
