Just got a piper cross induction kit for mine and my girlfreinds, they both sound mint. Hers is on an 8v 1.4SRi Corsa and mine is on a Corsa C SRi 1.4, hers sounds better due to it not having no sound proofing under the bonnet. Would definatley recomend!

I have the PVD BFO CONE it's awesome, it growls at low revs and then roars when you put your foot down, Think this is mainly down to the dimensions. Oh and it uses piper-x filters anyway... RECOMMENDED

I've never noticed a difference in how much fuel my car uses, but if it's set up ok you should be fine.

I always fit mine myself, they come with instructions on how to do it so you shouldn't have a problem. Depends on which one you go for but i've heard all good things about the PVD filter and was going to get one but they said they don't do them for a Corsa C, stuck to buying pipercross cos i've never had any trouble with them.

I htink they do a BFO for the Corsa C, as for fitting it should take bout 10-20mins as long as you have the instructions and even if you dont its not too hard..With the BFO i have noticed a difference in fuel consumption but this is to be expected as its taking in more air than your standard airbox... I think the Eco-tek fuel widget will sort it out my mate put one on his nova sr, which has a K&N induction kit an noticed the difference.
