I am going to be buying a cone filter for my Astra soon and getting a mate of mine to make up a metal airbox to house it in, a bit like the one Matt C used to have on his Corsa Sport.

i did say that i preferred my car without the air kit, but have put it back on recently and quite enjoying it.... does make the car hesitate sometimes, but i think i expect too much..
Seems fcuking loud tho, i'm sure it louder than last time i had it on...
