Hi, will an ecotek valve make any difference to performance/economy of my 1.4 16v Corsa? Looking at ecotek website, it seems like I might as well put one on, but anyone got any experiences or views? Do I need a pipercross induction kit as well? Im currently running a K&N induction kit and am pretty happy with it.

I wouldn't bother either, unless ur car is running rich, cos all it does is add more air in to the mixture.

ecotek valve gave me about 50 more miles to a full tank but the noise it makes it unbarable it pisses you off. i have heard of people that had problems with sensors when they fitted the ecotek... basicly its hype

I'd sell the K&N and combine the money with the money you were going to spend on the ecotek and buy a Pipercross Viper kit or Simota kit.

Worth the money, especially the viper kit. What would you reccommend then sfxer? Fat aero spoiler, 22" chromes, go faster stripes and led tireflys?

why not spend a little more and get a replacement inlet manifold?
