I've been trying for the last 20mins, and there has been no answer apart from the crappy little voice telling me to "hold or leave a message"

Anyone else able to get through cos i want the BFO cone for the Corsa C, but i need to speak to them

I can't get the BFO cone anywhere else Sooty.

I had a few messages saying the operator is unavailable, so maybe this means no-one was there to answer the phone?

I've just called and go through after only a few rings. Told Pete he should buy me a Corsa TD and hung up.

Lines were probably busy...

Just drive around with no air filter. An air box/cone filter just takes up space in the engine bay.

Yes, I recommend using an old sock, or your dads stockings.

I feel using any of the above may restrict air flow?

You do not need air to run a car.

Why not just get rid of the whole induction system? It would make the car faster because of the weight loss.

Hmm this is true. Throw away the air box, trunking, throttle body, and inlet manifold. Removing those items should give you at least an extra 50bhp.

Get someone to lay in your engine bay and feed the fuel into your induction system.
