V10 wink

Best bet is prolly measure the intake pipe and get a universal filter that will attach on the end - prolly cost £15-£30 depending if there is one or 2 intakes....

There was one of these ripping round the rock last night, in proper chav tastic style, fog lights on, swerving through cars etc [Linked Image]

Sounded pretty decent TBH - pretty sure it was the V8 Model (Dont think it was a big 6), but it was an auto and had a blag "M" badge on the boot lid [Linked Image]

If yours sounds like this one then thats a decent note to add a filter too - especially if that was a 6 and not the V8 grin

What made it worse was the driver was tearing past, right next to our cars to avoid the speed bumps and having to slow down... think

I can understand a bit of right foot on the open road, but struggle to see the point in a quiet, confined car park.

Still, last night was a BMW, tonight it will be Corsas and Saxos, same cock drivers just different cars [Linked Image]


Gadget - get some universal filters bolted on to see how it sounds smile

Its cos their all pricks and think they are rally drivers and racing drivers cos they can tear around the car park lol... funny thing is Stu, you and any other real racing drivers would probably whoop their asses on a trackday even if you were restricted to reverse gear only grin

I hear BMW's can be funny about air boxes and air filters. Id go and ask on a bmw site. I know the E30's and E36 straight 6's actually loose power if you take the air box out on some occasions so it might be worth finding out from some specialists. Only problem is that any purpose built bits are gonna cost.

Posted By: StuyMac Re: induction kits - 16th Jul 2008 12:25pm
Lol, I thought yours was Black for some reason... think

Anyways, the badge is an afterthought - its stuck in the wrong place for a factory "M" badge wink
