drilled my air box a few months ago and put a k&n panel filter in it. i also took out the arch lining and put some cold air feeds in these. i found it great, a better sound but not too great. so i put the arch liner in and it sounded a lil bit deeper. then i thought of making more holes in the box, took it out and instead of drilling more holes i joined them up with a jigsaw!

heres some pics below to show wher i cut, now they are big holes, like on the side there is a square but. the inverted parts are when i cut:






i have also removed the piping from inside the box so the air is more distributed

now the sound is MUCH deeper and throaty and it sounds less raspy between 5&6000 rpm
