    From k&n to airbox

    Finally after a year of the k&n i've opted for a standard airbox. Swapped with NaplesValver off of here.
    Before

    Half bolted on

    On



    Off out to see how different it sounds now, will report back later

    ^lol

    :D Less sound but a noticeable difference on how responsive it is, has a bit more pull around 2k now whereas with the k&n it seamt all noise and no go until you hit nearer 4k, i'd recommend doing it if anybody is thinking of it. Probably miss the roar but i prefer how it drives now, i'm sure a bit of is is psychological but it's still an improvement

    A vid on the way.

    just used the standard feed mate, was all still there. I've had two attempts at polishing it now and it's still too dull doesn't really help trying to do it on the car is suppose

    Oh yeah, how did you get all your black rubber pipes so clean? Or are they new? tried wiping mine and stuff but they still go dull
