Air Filter box - punched hole

[mirage2929]

hi all sifus,

just wander by punching holes on the filter box just before the air filter
can improve engine performance? I was offered at RM25 to drill those holes.
Anyone done it before and comments????

kwai, your car damn nice. saw your posting and clicked on it. 140+ atw is very impressive. what chip you are using?

what i did was to remove the intake "hose" that connects to the airbox.

no need to cut holes. Without the "hose", the round hole on the airbox is big enough.
