yes mate that would be excellent, V8 snobbery is rife over here, and the dealers laugh at Barina's being modified

this morning i absolutely fnarging destroyed a Falcon XT, 220bhp 4.0 straight 6 but around 1800kg


the twat thought he was mark webber driving past at 200 leptons an hour, so came to my turnoff, lights went green and i stuck to his bumper like glue until he moved out the way

it is fairly roomy, i was surprised. the 30mm trumpets help though, meaning i can have a smaller sausage. half tempted to get a plate made to fit infront of the firewall, to hide all hoses and wiring behind, so it looks all smooth

30mm trumpets

you'll be wanting bigger ones if you want any torque.

bigger trumpets = no room = less airflow IMO
it'll be fine once its mapped, just you wait!

whats the deal with using angled trumpets up to a filter hiding in a bonnet scoop?

it'd be a pain to get all lined up, fitting the filter would be harder, and they'd be more exposed to rain etc
im happy with them how they are, its more the noise i want rather than a few extra bhp

saying that, i tried to talk broster into doing it, 180degree trumpets facing forwards above the bonnet, with tights over the ends to keep out bumble bees etc

Engines looking good Rob!

Monkster, £80 for a panel filter Suspension mods sound though, I'm sure you could wait 6 months!
