aah ok! What are these Chrome Funnels? Heard of them? My mate has an Astra mk4 - he's stuck 2 of them togethor, dunno where the logic was behind that, mind. But is sounds very nice...

Hey Guest one of our sponsors Progressive Parts is running Black Friday and Cyber Monday offers - more details here
Just a shiny piece of bling to be honest. Filter inside it is most probably ****. http://shop.ebay.co.uk/?_from=R40&_...niversal+air+filter&_sacat=See-All-Categories take your pic lol. Then just go to b&q and buy some **** pipe technology to connect your filter to your **** pipe.
Yeah they do go for about £30 but a decent green cotton filter with proven filtration costs about £60 without that crappy shield. Depends how much you love your engine though.
ermm well for a time - I did, but now - I just want it to sound decent 
... ONLY then will I start loving it again... maybe...
It sounds healthy though, considering it's 14years old... Sound waay nicer than an '03 1.2 Corsa idling...

The easiest way to get sound then would be no filter at all lol. Go to halfords or somewhere and see if theyve got a universal induction kit on the shelf.
I beg to differ with that, you can't beat a Vauxhall 3 pot
Do K&N do a direct replacement for the standard filter? That should give a bit more noise for minimal effort.
Edit: Have a look in here:

I came up with E-1210 (1994, 1.4l, not sure whether that's right for your car) which can be had for about £35

Cotton sounds decent right?

Yeah something like that if all you want is cheap noise. Then you'll need those pieces of shitter pipe like M0rk wrote about to get it mounted into the wing.
try doubling up your std filter mate. Ive messed around with loads of induction kits/filters etc all are **** and seem to destroy the bottom end torque and use more fuel.
Leave your std ring filter there, buy another one the same, mount them exactly one on top of other and seal the interface, then throw the cover on top of it all. youl need to seal the holes that originaly had screws in them in the top/centre of the cover and use longer screws to attatch thru the new higher cover to the engine (make sure it presses down tight for a good seal tho), keep the existing plastic inlet hose at the side and just extend it with pipe down to about the wing area or something to get sum decent cold air in there.By far the best airfilter option for me in the 1.4 engine nice rumbly sound all over and not just when ur flooring it, cheap as chips and doesnt make it drink more fuel or loose the low end torque.

thanks mate!... Sounds like an idea! but how do I seal up the box? It's only 1 filter's worth of height? You say stack 2 ontop then do you?

aah I get you... so it's gonna be like an "exploded" view of it in a way... both of them on show? And I get rid of the pipe? Or run some more down to the wing? WHy the wing may I ask? Why not to the front grille?
