recently drilled my airbox and have ben trying for a few weeks to find some thign suitable for a cold air feed, i know you can buy them but i was looking where to put it on my enigne and it looks like it will have to go down the side of a pulley and it looks a b it riskly cos if it catches it i dont want it to rip the blet off?

where have you all got yours?

also do K&N, PX, BMC panel filters make a diference

if i was u i would buy a K&N there simple to fit and gives ur car more of a pull between 3 and 4 thousand revs can feel alot of differance but for the extra few £ go for a pipe cross there more efficiant and jsut all roud better

tip : buy a specific corsa K&N (if u get one) u get an extra little bit of pip, without they just done fit

are you on about induction kits because i meant panel filters, as replacements for the paper one i have already, was just wondering if there worth 30 quid, are they noisier and make any diference to acceleration?

anyone got a pic of there cold air feed?

SEARCH.

PiperX gave me flat spots on my 16xe, K&N gave better results and also sounded better.
