yeah i will get a panel filter and see how it goes then. it was really when i pull away from a set of lights and i noticed it and i thought to myself it wasnt this bad with the induction kit on.

It has a bigger surface area than panel filter, will be kept cool by airbox, still get ind sound (if you like that sort of thing)

Hi guys, I was thinking of drilling holes in my airbox. The main reason i was going to do this was for the noise. can u really hear it and do you need to change the panel airfilter to get this noise?

dont drill it, remove the internals of the airbox and fit a K&N or PiperX ind inside the box, will be louder than panel filter and still reduce heatsoak

I say get some pipework in there to relocate the induction kit down the wing to colder air.
Mine is hardly ideal but it looks like this...

induction kits dont give any gain's either
