I just got a K&N 57i for my Corsa B SXi 1.2 16v, and although it makes a little bit of induction noise, it isn't really audible / loud.
Sure, I do have an exhaust system which sort of overpowers the sound of the induction kit but my mate's 1.4 16v MG ZR has a Pipercross which roars (esp. at around 4000RPM). How do i get it loud??????
Also where the hell do I route the cold air feed pipe to? It just ain't long enough!!!!
Any ideas/help?! Thanks people

It's a small engine, what do you expect! It won't make a Scooby kind of noise like the 1.4/1.6 engines do.
When I used to have my Corsa I had 3 cold air feeds going to it at one point! I'll try and post a pic for you when I get home!

All cars react differently to induction kits. Some are MEGA loud, some are barely noticable. This is mostly down to the engine size and setup. Like Sam said, go for more airfeeds.

I must have spent so much money experimenting with different ways to force cold air to the induction cone on my Corsa. Piece of shit car that it was!
