Does anyone have one of these fitted, do you notice the effect of it? and if yes what do you notice?

Also if anyone can help me, i want to lower my car but know nothing about it, i know i obviously need lowering springs, what else is required?

 

[jim610]

with a k&n you prob wont notice any proformance differance just make it sound better.you can just lower it on springs but you'll be better off getting springs and dampers.:thumbs_up:

you can hear it really suck in the air and makes the exhaust sounds good.

 

[eadand2003]

yeh, i thought it was mainly induction ktis you got the sound from, not panel filters?

K&N Air Filters let more air in and sound iferent mate.

Anyone know where you can buy one of these cheap, but not using eBay? Ive only found like £35-40

 

[jim610]

thats prob as cheap as your guna get one.

 

[eadand2003]

mine was £39.95 i think delivered, its on its way now money well spent if it makes it sound better!

 

[James]

ok mate. so with a drilled airbox, what difference would one of these make? Cos if im gonna drill my airbox I will get one if it doesnt make much different I wont bother drilling either. I mean as in Sound difference

 

[eadand2003]

when i bought mine i got it as it said its designed to increase horsepower and acceleration, i didnt know of the sound difference till i came on to here so im not sure mate.

 

[eadand2003]

to be honest mate, in regards to drilling your airbox, yes it sounds nice but it can cause flatspots and you wont have such a smooth acceleration curve.

 

[James]

yeah i know, i've done it now just wanna buy filter... where was this 39.93 delivered from? ebay?

 

[eadand2003]

yeh was on ebay i searched for Corsa C Air Filter and came up with quite a few.

 

[siamundo]

dnx air filters mate a bit cheaper than K&N (at about £30) does the same job.

For the C I have heard good things about the pipercross air filter, shame you have already bought the K&N or I would of recommended the pipercross. However the K&N should still do the job.
As for the drilled airbox, a few people on here have done it and I havent heard any complaints; have a look at dearings airbox as he has run an extra cold air feed to the drilled bit, which really is the only way you will get gains from drilling instead of just a nice sound.
