    Here's a vid of Wayne's car to finish the collection. I'm doing a vid for the day but I doubt it'll be much better than Robs. Will post it here when I get it done.

    Hold up you were singing the filters praises when you were at the Ace meet

    Not saying it isn't because of the filter but just remember different dynos do give different figures did you feel any difference as 18whp is a fair bit about a gain of 21bhp

    same rollers on the same day mate. 2 runs, took the filter off, instant extra 18whp. spooled up a lot faster too. (watch Charlie's video)

    So being a chav actually costs you BHP. Having seen the filter in question, I'm not surprised.
