hi everyone, i just fitted my apexi power intake air filter and was very happy that it makes a really nice swoosh noise similar to a dump valve when i am boosting and then change gear, just wondering if this is normal? the noise is a bit louder when there is more boost.
here it is

1 more ques, how do i take the diagnostic socket off the air filter? just pull it out or is there a clip? was using quite a lot of force n wouldnt come off:

if you have stock bov mate it will sound like that. its just the sound of the bov through the pipe.

as for the diagnostic socket. pull it upwards and it should come off. mine did

yeah, same as what i got. its a real apexi filter, its just iniversal, not a specific car kit. half the price of the starlet kit ;)

it is real mate. no doubt about that. all i was getting at is its not the car specific kit, which apexi charge another £50 for the privilege of a few brackets and a different sized reducer.
