Did you know that most VXR owners replace the VXR air filter with the one from the 1.9 CDTi as its much much better. All you might want is to replace the pannel filter with maybe a K&N pannel filter. If i was you i would get that simota out asap.

Where u put intake ? is that 1.9cdti 150hp? Because i dont have any space for air filter intake like that

hi, and i have opel astra g but where is cabin filter?

[jarrus464]

@bhendriks15 don't bother, there are far more restrictions in your intake than the filter, sort those out first, it will be cheaper

@bhendriks15 Your thought is right, plus the airbox has very long pipes, the air is doing a huge course till it ends into the manifold.

@urbex2007 What about keeping the orginal airbox but replace the paper with a Simota ?? whats your opinion ??

[khisanth75]

Have seen many tests and the ones where they kept the stock box and filter did best. 2nd was drilling some holes in the airbox!

what bhp u got?

@urbex2007 Agreed, a note to the owner of the car and video, did you know that courtenay sport and thorney motorsport (vauxhalls top tuners in the UK no less) use the air box off the 1.9 cdti on there 330 bhp power kits? So they must be good

It's comes back to the old saying "if it ain't broke, don't fix it"

Might I suggest putting the old box back on with a paper filter in it and just change the front pipe (all those extra bends in the simota kit can't help performance can it?)

where did you get it? this engine type isn't on the simota website
