    I did the airbox mod with a band new paper filter and wasnt impressed, also heard a vectra go by today with a nice grumble about it without being mental lol, I wasnt going to make too noisey because of the kid on the way, but it sounded perfect so i ordered a K&N, I just wondered if anyone had advice or had personally channeled air from the radiator side ( not over it lol ) to the cone and fitted a heat shield

    open the airbox, remove the filter, and undernieth you will see a plastic funnel that basically restricts the air to only half the filter. Remove it and the whole filter is used

    I bought My heatshield from demon tweaks and got my cold air from the left hand side of the radiator using the GSI air intake instead of the standard one that goes over the radiator.
