my take is the bigger the engine capacity (cc) the more fuel and air can be mixed to create your output (bhp etc.). Obviously the larger the engine get the more cylinders you need as the bore can only be so big before we get a wenkle engine. Hence the reason we have v6's etc.
The real trick...
Cheers brian, sounds like some sound reasoning.
I was returning to the oe airbox anyway and will not get my wood drill bits out. What are your feelings on free flow aftermarket panel filters?
Batman, I have a big noisy exhaust and an eco valve (not fitted) that used to be on my saxo but you...
As Lam7r says. They are ultimately designed to help with fuel economy, silencing and passing the various EU emmision checks.
The design money is will spent and they do a stirling job, but some people want noise and some people want more power/lower fuel economy. We have forgotten nothing.
same with my saxo. drill the side away from the engine and add a large hole with a cold feed pipe and a good panel filter and it was better than std and the pipercross I fitted later.
no it was the way you did it, making a joke out of a simple question.
Do not mistake me for a young mod mental chav. For the record many cars in the past have benefitted from this if done correctly, just perhaps not the high spec sports cars, hecnce the reason I asked
On my way home from Halfrauds (for silvertech bulbs) passed a ph-quick in silver heading up the A1231 towards gateshead near the blackfell/oxclose turnoff. black wheels and looking nice.
Also some dude has a 182 cup in blue parked across the road, a 3 plater from the looks of it
Thinking about putting my OE airbox back on the car and getting a decent panel filter for it.
On my VTS I had the airbox drilled and a cold feed running to it and the improvements were great before I fitted the viper.
Comments plz

Back by popular demand, supposedly the only 1 in existance but we seen it on ebay last month...
Bough an ariel from them and took 6 weeks to arrive, and then only after paypal revoked the payment
Then by mistake bought some silver tech bulbs and they sent the wrong pin offset and only 1 pack when I ordered 2.
Waste of oxygen as a company. :quiet: Save yourselves
Been to revolution today to look for some new alloys and spotted a limited edition set of matt black Renault F1 superlegias.
619 for a set with an upgrade to toyo proxies available.
Anyone got any feedback on these before I spend my hard earned on them.
