Just drilled mine, and fcuk me it sounds the bollocks, very beefy!!
If an induction kit will make a better noise, im looking forward to getting one!!
But if it's true you would get more power from a drilled box and filter, what is the best filter on the market?
Im up for doing a test, getting an induction kit and a new filter and see which one is best.
Tbh i think ive noticed a better response (only small) since ive drilled!

theirs a guide done by moi on drilling air boxes
drilled airbox and panel filter (i have K&N panel filter) does give more power than a induction, it was proved a few weeks back as some1 tested drilled air box with K&N panel filter, K&N induction kit and a viper induction kit
K&N induction kit made 110bhp
Drilled air box and K&N panel filter made 114bhp
Viper induction kit made 119bhp
