Still, they are very good on Clios from what i have read, but i have never seen one fitted on a Saxo, should be good

Really love the look and stance of your car.
Unsure on the headlights mind.

ANYWAY...
Filter fitted...
now the bastard thing did come with an inlet throat but I'm thinking it was for another model car or something. So, I'm going to contact ITG tomorrow and see about a model specific replacement... because, at the moment... It looks daft sucking in all that shitty hot air.
Sounds alright though... just need to remove the MEOW now and we'll have some proper noise... wooo

ooh my bad. if you use the window sealant in that link, you could de-wiper and not worry about dirt and crap on the rear window. thats if you want to.
will be very interesting to see what gains the new filter give, not seen this one before.

Well I've reset the ECU just to speed up the process of getting the fuel trims set quicker... so it'll be a while before we find out...!

But the actual enclosure is stiff but bloody light. If you have a wireless mouse with batteries in it, the enclosure weighs less that... it's madness dude.
The throttle response is improved slightly - but that's all I've had a chance to witness yet.
Still not happy about the opening being in the vicinity of the engine bay so I'll have to sort something out sharpish.

looks good mate, is there not ment to be a carbon fibre shell that sits behind the grill (like the raceland induction kits but without the filter inside it) and connects to the main ITG filter section so cold are is forced into it rather than warm engine bay air
on this 106gti pic it looks like it is connected to something

Yar. it's actually a rubber moulding and that's what I'm getting at... The one I have is DEFO not for the Saxo which is why I'm going to speak to ITG and see if they have the correct bit
