Looking on other corsa forums most people say that haveing a drilled airbox is better gthen an induction kit. But will all the drilled holes not suck to much air in and make the orange light come on?

Not really no, the engine only 'sucks in' as much air as it needs. The point of de-restricting via airboxes/induction kits being to make this easier.

The advantage of the drilled airbox being that it is less susceptible to taking in hot (less dense) air.

just do not remove the plate from the bottom of the airbox as it can give the car a annoying powerband and make it bog down when accelerating..

sounds the nuts tho
