Does anyone out there as a corsa on trottle bodies?
If so who uses an airbox? does the SBD airbox fits the corsa?
I want to use one because I want to lower down the noise of the trottles...

SBD do a different throttle body setup that uses an airbox

normal throttle bodies only use a foam sock and are meant to be loud

no you need the full SBD setup

just get a bonnet vent to pump cold air into them

and turn your stereo up louder

Just got rid of the stereo, to save weight!
SBB makes an airbox and fits then to the ASTRA GSI 196bhp kit and connects it to the original airbox.
I just wanna know if someone has this setup?

I've already spoken with Steve Broughton. He told me that it might fit...
If you have a pic, it would be helpful.

thanks

give me your email address....

SBD are just guessing then, they'll no doubt charge you 15% if it doesn't fit and you send it back as well! They are CNUTS like that
