Hi all just fitted a vx performance inlet and the cars running slow. Barely wants to climb the revs. All the vacumes are in the right place and so are pipes. Has anyone else ecierienced this ? It's really p*ssing me off as usually the car pulls like a absolute train !

have you checked everywhere for air leaks,a spray around joins with wd40 with the engine running is a good test.
Got full throttle?

I recently fitted a vx inlet to my car but it made it slower then a few days later what I can only describe as my head gasket giving in happens, however after stripping it down I found a breather from the throttle body to a pipe in the back of the engine twisted could something as simple as this of caused the power loss and the water to pressurise and mix with the oil ? And would anyone recommend a oil breather filter for the loose pipe from the rocker cover ? Cheers Richard
