Hard to tell unless youve had your car on a rolling road. Theres usually a gradual increase in power then the graph goes down like a stone. 6500 in mine - miles sooner than the redline, rev limiter or the optimum change light.
Exactly. One of the reasons for fitting an aftermarket filter is that you can re-use it again and again after cleaning it. Saves money in the long run.
The ones with suction pads are pretty expensive. Jessops will sell you a camera clamp which is like a G-clamp with a tripod mount. Ive found the best place to mount it is the passenger headrest upright. Works well and you can easily access the camera from the drivers seat. I think mine cost...
You need to improve your relationship with your dealer. When mine went in for its 12k service I told em "dont change the airfilter cos Ive got an aftermarket one". So they didnt. Just a waste of time and money.
No particular reason at the time. There was a scarcity of elements for the Mk2 for a while and the Pipercross was one of the first to become available. On a recent RR session my car made 158bhp at the wheels (approx 188 at the flywheel) - only other relevant mod is a Magnex full system.
I mashed one of mine on a trackday (hit cones - incompetent) then the other one collapsed on its own - both were replaced under warranty which was a great result. Just say it worked loose - as long as theres no other damage on the car you should be ok.
Agree with most of the preceding posts - black can be a bit much. There are some nice grey / anthracite shades about though, thinking of some for my (red) 172.
Yes thats right. Cant find the F1 Cup on sale anywhere at the mo, but there is an F1 Evo (maybe this replaced the Cup) which looks the same. Comes in 15", 16", 17", & 18". Prices from £105 at Demon Tweeks.

When I bought my Eibach springs I found these guys were a bit cheaper than Demon Tweeks. Good service too. Dont bother with the online shop just give em a ring.
My car is 2002. I must admit I dont generally travel at much over 150km/h on our crowded public roads, and on track days all the vents are open anyway. I doubt I can hear the radio at 190 km/h either!
