Well guys a "friend" of mine has just put a pipercross panel filter in his MCS to replace the stock item.

He says it has made a noticeable difference to the car, he says it feels more responsive at low revs and seems to rev that wee bitty easier too :D

Bargain at about £35 from Cool New! :)

Ya bugger, there was no need to make it that easy for me to buy one, I was trying to convince myself that it would be too much hassle looking up the website myself!!;):clown:

My "friend" reckons it sounds very slightly more throaty but not that much more noticeable - as for the bhp figures - can't say - the website claims they do increase - but it will be very minimal.

He's still intact (except that kidney I stole and the bit of liver that tribal says regrows) but I haven't gone ahead with that yet cause I was trawling through ebay today and found an RS clutch that would do Robs car for a very tasty £250 and an RSR spoiler for £500 (Santa, your sacked!!) so I think Mr. Mastercard might be saving himself for that!!;):D

I've decided to try and buy the spoiler for Robs christmas, so if I get it, please no-one say anything, and he's told me to try and get the clutch kit, so no more mini toys for a while (unless Rob takes all my hints for christmas!!):D
