My mistake mate.. ahah... mines only a 1lt 12v and sounds poo hot on it the thing i like is when your just plodding along it sounds normal its when you move up into higher revs you here it makes an impressive sound.. and ive found its got a little more go in it.. i got it off my uncle for free as he used to have it on his 20v turbo but decided to take it off when he sold it.. he got it from his work at about £60 for the full kit but as it was for a fiat the pipes dont fit there far to big and route wrong but the filter itself fits straight onto the rubber bit were the orginal air box fits onto... ive been to halfords today and they have budget ones K&N style ones for £40 which i thought wasnt bad at all im sure you can pick one up on ebay for cheap chap.. ill keep my eyes pealed if i come across anougher ill let you know imo.. its deffo worth doing the noise and differance to my eyes are noticeable...
