i installed the pd160 and cleaned out my k&n filter. and there is a nice difference in airflow to the motor now, is certainly feels like it breaths better and has a crisp rev in the higher range. Keep in mind that i still have a stock ECU and exhaust.
one more thing, i was looking at the piece that the pd160 clicks in to (the one that screws into the car) - and i thought it too looked a bit restrictive, so i cut out the plastic bit and now the opening has more area/cm2 than the pd160 intake trumpet. without cutting that plastic flap, it would have been about 1/2 the area.
next on the list is a downpipe (using the factory cat and exhaust)....improve the breathing in the motor, should also improve the breathing out
