I've just gone to chance the k&n cone filter back to original but noticed I now need the two cold air feed pipes on my 197! Does anyone have any spare for sale as cannot find any in eBay or any breakers.Very frustrating as the old owner stripped all pipe work along with the box & threw them!

I've got a 197 with a k&n cone air filter & the guy before me put a new toyosports manifold on. It's pretty loud which is ok but I want it to sound almost quiet... Would it be the manifold or the cone making it roar?! It feels like it's coming from the centre of the foot well where the manifold...

Hey, I've just swapped my 182 to a 197... When I drove it,it was very loud. It had a scorpion exhaust,which the garage changed back to original thinking it was that,but it's not. The car has a new k&n air filter would this be making it loud when driving? If so what's the best thing to do?
