   Hi there I have a westcoast and I was wanting to buy an airfilter I like the carbon enclosed ones. I see that kam racing have an offer for one does anybody know if this will fit my car? Does it change the sound much and does it improve the power etc?

   i bought one of these of ebay and i was told it would fit vtr and the 1.4 but it dosent ihad to make room under bonnt by moving the power steering resevoir and wdgeing between battery and coil pack (tight really tight) and the i had to extend the hose to the throttle body!
   the power increase isnt fantastic alone you would need exhaust etc but they are one of the better kinds of filters as they dont take in hot air so theyre better than jus the cone type etc.

   thats for a vts, dont think it will fit off the shelf, give them a call, they should be able to point you in the right direction, it wont make a lot of difference to power, but should make a bit of a nicer sound when you put your foot down
