Well the airbox is pretty much done.I am thinking of painting it black to suite the engine bay.
First impression were a much quieter drive and much more torque.I press the accelerator and the car just pulls like a train .I will have to gtech it and drive it for a few days to really see the differences .So far the engine response feels very dramatic!!

Its the same as prior picks mate.Hhehe doesnt look too exciting but the edging from clark rubber as suggested by jc came in handy. Now I am just making sure it is sealed right.Might take a pick in the morning and post it for you.

That looks pretty tidy Stav (with the exception of the overspray ;) )
I'm a little dissapointed though....what happened to the pink "Reco" on the rocker cover?? Anyway, good work chief

Is it just coincidence that there is a massive blower hanging on the wall just above the air box?

Stav - that looks really good. You could say it's a useless G&D airbox! The edging makes a difference in looks doesn't it. Same edge underneath, but finishes it off nicely!

Still I do believe alot of hot air is far better than little cold air so the useless development continues.
