The Cda will sound nice but from what I hear does nothing in the way of performance increase. Our cars work best with standard modified airbox

Yep they add nothing. Most loose power.

I only had a vr6 for the noise it made and the simota is a great megaphone along with 6 branch decat and straight through  :evil:

Well i havent put the snorkle into the airbox and was thinking of fitting a cai to the factory airbox. Dont realy want to butcher the airbix buy doing the cheese mod lol tbh.
The best positive thing we had yesterday was hear the BEAST fire up then cut out lol. My mechanic said f*ck me this sound too good. It has a 2.9 inlet or throttle. Just waiting for the transponder box so i can get her warmed up. It has a jetex decat, i got hotgolf to lighten a flywheel for me aswell :cool:
we changed the oil and filter last night.

The 2.9 inlet and body along with light flywheel and exhaust and remap will see about 195bhp and it loves to rev  :cool:
