Nice one fella

Only realy asking as im thinking of making a metal heat rapped sectioned off box type thing that sitting behind the light so i can still have a cone filter and not suffer from heat soak to much

ive always wondered why anyone never made a ram type air filter for the corsa like they do for the 106/saxo because that design or similar would be ideal!!!

Watch it on the battery tray, and gear linkages, i had my tube off twice to repair it where it had worn holes into it. Looks great though, went drag racing and a few corsa's there had the drivers light out, had quite a few people asking why id taken the passenger light out

Did it make much difference having it that side missing out that nasty restrictive pipe?

I cant see it being that good! It would be better if it sat further in the wind sucking on cold air!

Guy called Keith, doubt he will register on here tbh, he was 39 year old and had two kids anyway, so he was sensible, so hopefully it will be looked after. Wernt getting rid of them Cesaro's, they were bargain of the year at a whole 10 quid.

i cant see the advantage in it either

surely its best to have as little travel for the air as possible. ie shorter distance between filter and engine
