Save some money and drill the airbox. Its ghetto but it'll give you the noise you want.
If you want to spend money then my personal vote is:
http://www.cbsonline.co.uk/product/R...FILTER_CARBFIL
Its cheaper than a CDA so make of that what you will but not as crap as just a cone filter sucking in hot air from the engine bay.

Induction kits are an easy job, you shoould't have to worry about ease of fitting.
That CDA copycat looks interesting...

Your 1.6i sx is basically a vtr, I would go for a wolfrace one off eBay £20 or if you can still get hold of one try Kam racing for a raceland one.
Hope this helps

the sheer size difference in the top of the engine will tell you. i.e 3 piece rocker cover as opposed to 1 piece

They made basically a vtr auto, it was an sx shell fitted with full vtr running gear. They were not that slow. My mother in law had one, it went well
