A quick spray of matt black and I think it looks quite tidy.

I've left the original hole in the base of the box open, but I'm hoping that this - very cheap! - addition may improve things.

Only a proper dyno test will confirm one way or the other whether there's any difference in performance, as I must say I can't notice any, but I just feel that anything's got to be better than the standard arrangement.


Borrowed your idea sid. First person I showed it to suggested an angle on the rectangular inlet to better align with louvres.

Next plan is to somehow block off original air inlet route to reap full advantage of cool air.
