Right ive done it but ive done it differently to the "swiss cheese" mod, insted I didnt want to open up the box to allow warm air from under the bonet to find its way in, what I did was remove the front pipe, you know the 1 that is small and leads into the wing? well I removed that completely, then I attached a Induction pipe to the hole where that little pipe used to be, I then fed that pipe down to the front of the bumper next to the rad, I then drilled out a hole from the hard bit of plastic just to the right hand side of the fake fogs, so that the pipe has a direct feed to "COLD" air, for now as im low of funds I just replaced my pannel filter for a standard boch one untill I pickup a PIPERX one.

In terms of performance I am not entirely sure if its in my head but the drive does seems smoother, and now the exaust and revs seems slightly deeper. :)
