   have you guys n gals done anything to your engine bays, samco hoses, wot air filters as been told the K&N for the vtr wont fit,i know about the arguements against these filters as enclosed ones are alot better, just wana see some pics and get some info on making my lil 1.4 furio a tiny bit quicker.
   
   thanks ppl

   i got a k&n in mine (VTS) , sounds great , not good for the performance though , if you wont to increase performance go for a BMC or something along those lines

   if you want to make your car a wee bit quicker then fit an enclosed filter (green, bmc etc) and strip your interior out (rear bench, trim, carpets) and lose the spare wheel. costs naff all and less weight= slight increase in power-weight.

   I've got a K&N on my Westie courtesy of the previous owner and its wank! Yeah, it sounds mean but is probably causing me too loose power rather than gain. I'm going BMC and CAT-BACK next year when the money rolls in
   
   First things first though........LOWERING......
