BMC CDA enclosed carbon filter is probably your best bet.

sorry mate. what engine are you using?
to be perfectly honest, the performance gains that any form of induction kit provide are very minimal.

most people find that sticking to the standard air box that vauxhall developed works best. panel filter it is- any brand.

if you want noise and nothing more, you'll be fine.

yeh panel filter and cold air feed.

not worth the money buying BMC or viper.

drill the box if you want some noise.

Mine has some holes drilled into it. Its not going to make much difference to intake temps on this engine. Try and spot the exhaust manifold on the photo
