these engines dont run to bad, its the ones that have the in-line air flow meter that dont like the air filters that much. but you might want to put an extended bit before your filter to try and get it closer to the front for a bit of fresh air

yh if i were you i'd loose the air filter, yours is sucking all the hot air in from the engine, and corsa's HATE hot air, i wud either add a cold air feed or just put a standard air box in.

yerrr and the tints suposed to go on the inside aswell not the outside, and you have to use a heat gun to stretch it, and loads of water, its pretty much of a skilled trade window tinting.
