    hello oblark, Romsey huh !!!
    which school did you go to ? Mountbatten or Priestlands ?
    i grew up in North Baddesley.

    by the way mate, the cone filter wont be doing you any favours, youll be sucking in warm air istead of cold (compramising your power slightly) .

    Except it makes access to some of the engine bits a lot easier!

    Hi Blackbooty, I went to Priestlands school.

    I have 2 ducts feeding cold air to the cone filter.
