not in the slightest.
The standard TB is capable of handling enough airflow for around 300bhp, I've seen bored out and matched T/B's compared to standard ones and the only difference is the money missing from the bank.
you want to get that breather blocked up or piped back in.
It won't be happy if it sucks in any grit!
On the standard airbox, there are 2 cold feeds, on goes through the hole just infront of the airbox behind the headlight, the other goes downwards iirc.
If your battery is under the scuttle...
Rather than chasing bhp, try upping your power-weight ratio.
Ditch the rear seats, carpets, spare wheel, sound deadening.
Then fit some decent springs, tyres and brakes.
Make more difference than an air filter, exhaust and remap ever will, and probably be cheaper.
oddly enough, mine started doing this last night.
most noticeable at 30 or above and definitely speed related, doesn't change sound and I was convinced it was wheel bearing or gearbox, but it sounds more rearwards.
Turned out the stupid fibre matting over the back box was flapping and rubbing...
a 50 shot of nos.

I've been after a price for about 2 weeks.
So far the only news that I've seen 'released' today I knew about 2 weeks ago as it was announced on FB.
I was hoping todays big news was going to be pricing etc.
Look forward to the updates! Was genuinely tempted by one, then saw the fun Alex had and the sellers response on here and was massively put off.
Although I still considered having Alex's when he offered it up cheap last month, but wanted to see figures after mapping before I committed.
I only...
Aside the beasting the Turkish inlet took originally on quality issues and the sellers attitude etc
Have we seen any results from it fitted and mapped yet?
Is that the latest version of the software?
I need to update all mine, but havent yet.
In theory though the options should be the same, just laid out differently
