   i think ive got how to fit it sussed except one thing
   
   the pipe that comes from the left of the air box goes in to the chrome pipe and a breather filter on the one coming from the rocker cover (or what ever it is lol) is that right?
   
   what happens to the sensor that is in the top right part of the air box?
   
   cheers

   i have a question for you, does it stink of oil when you put your heaters on when the car is stationary?
   
   usually rocker cover breathers make it smell really bad of oil!
