Welcome :grin:

Best way to get noise is a straight through pipe and a good backbox

And an drill and deristric the airbox with a good panel filter will give a nice growl aswell
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway :thumbs:

Inlet and exhaust will lower it a tiny bit but if you put the inlet and exhaust on you wont regret it, the 1.4 is the nicest sounding engine vaux make imo
