    is it true you can get a mean sound out of your car by adding an airfilter , but without adding new exhaust

    cone filters will add extra induction noise,but no performance as they suffer from heat soak once the engine is warm more than other types of filter

    Typical halfords FAQ.

    Don't bother, it's a 1.1 get a cd with some V8 noises on it.

    The argos filter is a monster, comes with free 'V8' filter insert. Worth it IMO
