My 1.2 16v corsa B with a 70mm cold ducting underneath the filter that you can't see.

Let me know if the photo doesn't work....

The black ducting you see in the photo connects to the bottom front grille with a cable tie.

Underneath the BFO there is the bigger 70mm pipe that simply runs down teh front of the qwheel arch and out the front underneath the bumper!

If your going to get an induction kit get a BFO, its infinitely better than the K&N.

lordbonzai: Not the same because the BFO is about 3 times bigger!

BFO is manufactured the same as a piperX though.

yeh, thats kinda what i meant. i was under the impression that piperX made the BFO cone and it was a foam filter, not like cotten filters such as KnN and Green etc

when fitting an induction kit what do you do with the red vacuum pipe that come from the throttle body cover to the original hot air intake? do you just disconect it? or do you have to connect it somewhere else? i got a 1.2 8v by the way...
