Pipe going into airbox !!

[KIWI16V]

Not wanting to sound like an idiot but I'm thinking about putting an induction kit on my car so I was wondering where would I put the thin pipe coming out of the airbox that goes to I think the inlet manifold can't quite remember now .Strange realy the car has been tuned with chip, cams and full stainless exhaust and sports cat yet the air box has the original panel filter inside. I was maybe just going to buy a cone filter but would mean that it has no instructions as to where this pipe needs to go. Thanks in advance. I do sound like an idiot, oh well:/

just get a cotton filtre to replace the standard mate, better then an induction kit

I saw a fitting guide somewhere, cant find the damn thing, it was a sellers guide though.

Any decent (not Halfords!) seller should be able to give you advice and some should give a fitting guide.

What like a k & N. Would be a lot easier I guess. Have you got one and if so which is it or would you recommend ? Thanks

Im not a seller mate sorry.

I used a sports filter as part of a stage one kit on a mini, really improved things and sounded great.

The panel filters by k&ns admission will get around 1bhp more power.

Not sure on cone filters on their own, but a stage one on a mini which is cone filter, uprated exhaust manifold and exhaust and carb needle is known to give about 10% increase.

I dont know about the ibiza, but i would imagine if you have or are going to get a decent full sports exhaust then really its a given you should get a cone filter as well.

No I was'nt asking have you got one for sale I was simply asking what one if any have you got on your motor. Sorry for the confusion. Thanks for the replies though

I did have a panel filter, but completely over oilled it and thought it was too much effort for little reward, so went back to the old fashioned paper one.

I dont think you can go wrong with k&n though.

Ive got a K&N cone on mine. Would never go back to the standard box now.

although have found it works better running a air feed pipe from the splitter to the cone.

Sounds great when it kicks in to.

have been meaning to go on the hunt for a heat sheild for it for ages now but always forget.
