The car is question is a c20xe corsa that has a airbox on with a panel filter... Loads of people have been telling me its too restrictive and that a filter would be better

Derestricting airbox is really easy, literally 5 min job. Take the top off and pull the bits out

Ask Rich H about using the airbox with the XE as he had to sort his old one earlier in the year. Should be able to tell you about the flexi bit you need and everything.

I managed to get the side bit off of my airbox after much persuading with two screwdrivers and a hammer, made a big hole on the wing side then Sounded proper deep once I'd done that. Must have made the Ashley exhaust twice as loud
