Hey to all. I did my BFI over the weekend and im amazed how much cooler and how much more power it gives the V8. It also sounds so much better :-) I did the basic one in the modify section. Definatly recommend doing this.

Have you insulated it from engine heat? Just thought I would add to the people with MB initials.

I don't know if I have 'got the most' out of mine, it is insulated from the engine heat, but the air noise in only noticeable at very high revs, I think I might need to make a bigger opening in my front for air to get in.

Sorry for recking the MB initial streak haha.

Oh 1 question, does the under headlight piece make a difference or should I take it out?
There is alot of room for air coming in underneath to get in.

I think because I got the exhaust done like 5 days after, didn't pay much attention, but there is so much more power on tap now, can spin second gear doin 60k with damp roads :-)

Oh yeah that post, forgot about those pictures.

I guess your intake will be quieter since you have put the covers around it, looks like the cut out I can see through the perspex is big enough.
