Yes, I went to Google and used the SEARCH option - it works quite well!
By the way - "proformance" can also be spelt, performance - this probably explains why you are not getting much out of yours!! LOL.

talk about taking a joke the wrong way,,, and for my engine size im getting plenty of power.... why did you edit that post btw, realise you'd made a spelling mistake lol
Most of the lower airbox in mine is now religious - sounds as good as any induction kit and cost err ... nowt but looks OE standard from the top
Very holy is it Pat?
Haha.
I always throught drilling holes in the airbox allowed entry of hot air?

Thats what I was thinking especially in the bottom of the airbox directly over the hot engine where there is not much airflow to blow it away?
Not at all denying the fact you might "feel" a performance increase, just in theory this would have a negative effect?

It's not drilled in the bit that hangs over the engine, just the bits that sit over the wing - hot air will be heated by the turbo and cooled via the FMIC anyway - can't see it making that much difference especially when i spend almost no time sat in traffic and if you are ..... you're not going to notice that you haven't got all of your 190 ponies working as hard as they should
I was originally talking about danmay's car, having the 1.2 i'd have thought it would be quite similar to my 1.4 in terms of the airbox layout? I dont know anything about the diesels so I couldnt comment on that front.
Only having 75bhp, every single one i have available counts so I dont want to put a load of holes in it to find out the performance is pretty poor when its warmed up

On a non turbo charged car with no FMIC ( not needed on normally aspirated engines) the effect would be much worse, possibly even noticeable.
i'm going on a mission to oxoford the weekend so i'll let you know about that shizz.
could be cold air ducting all the way haha
