Does anybody know of a good cone filter which has a good cold airfeed and heatshield as part of the kit? Really want to go down this route. Anyone have any experience?
Thanks guys, was thinking I wanted more induction noise, my car is a vec c 2.2 sri, forgot to mention that bit! I have heard you can drill the airbox and fit a panel filter. I have a question with regards to this though. Does drilling the airbox disrupt the airflow or have any negative effect on the engine which could cause potential running problems?
I recently drilled two 32mm holes into my air box. Didn't get much more induction noise, but could really here to turbo spool up. I've since gaffer taped them back over, as the sucking noise it was making wasn't actually that nice to hear.
Both mine and alys 2.2 airbox's on our 2.0 turbos have around 20 15mm holes drilled on the inner wing side of it below the filter, makes a nice induction noise and can here the dump valve alot more than without....
Decided to give modifying the airbox a shot. Friend helped out as me + tools = A&E. Removed the lower plastic in the airbox, to improve things on the noise side we drilled ten 22mm holes on the inner wing side of the airbox below the filter. The car does sound alot deeper now under acceleration.
