INSTALLING A PERFORMANCE CONE AIR FILTER! *ASTRA H MODS*

[@BIGHUS]

UPDATE: *Air Filter does not affect the MOT as my car passed the MOT with the air filter.* *Also the air filter still works, you can check the update video on my channel, video called “Number Plate Light Led Unit”*

[@HG-lm5mo]

Sounds much better! Going to do this to my car thanks man

[@BIGHUS]

Worth it & NP 👍

[@dieselstormz5967]

Great Video Hus. Add a Sri spoiler and tint the windows. That’s would look sik

[@BIGHUS]

Thanks & yeah will do, had that planned already thx tho

Ive got a astra h gtc 2009, and was considering a cone air filter !! You have had it now 3 months, do u really think its an improvement ?? In sound only or performance, fuel economy etc ?

[@BIGHUS]

I have to say I’m honestly impressed with the cone air filter. From my experience with these air filters the sound is the key factor over performance. In the performance perspective it adds a little boost (not dramatically but you can feel the difference.) I have had no effect on the fuel economy. Overall i’m impressed with air filter. Hope this helped :)

@@BIGHUS ok im going to buy one on ebay, as no halfords here as im a scot living en españa !!

[@jstinkistink1591]

Not sure if you still have the car but what was it like with flood water due to the storms we've been having and bad floods were I'm from its been really bad and wondered if you had any problems with same situations. Cheers

[@mundovespino451]

Good night, could you help me? I also wanted to put a sports filter in my astra but I do not know the size, could you tell me the size of the filter that you have, or if possible the link for me to buy? Thank you!

[@BIGHUS]

No worries mate, link in the description. You should be fine 👍

[@mundovespino451]

@@BIGHUS how many millimeters did you choose for your astra?

[@BIGHUS]

I just installed it straight on without the adapters so the filter is a direct fit to the intake hose. If you have the same type of Astra as me then you should be fine mate

[@wasimc4683]

Good stuff bro I got an astra sxi 10 plate my baby lmao gonna do this to my car now 💙🙏

[@multimillionairet602]

The adapters for the cones, do they have to be tightened on or can you just twist it in?

[@zakariyamunir2172]

Can I put a air cone on my vauxhall astra desighn A 2007

[@DeadShotAirsoft]

Hey man, any tips for making my astra a bit louder, it's only stock atm

[@BIGHUS]

Dead-Shot Airsoft Hey, the air filter can make the astra abit louder, check out my video titled “Number Plate LED Unit upgrade” where I show the update sound of the air filter. Another thing you can do is a backbox delete + straight pipe or you can change your whole exhaust system

[@DeadShotAirsoft]

Since this comment I have done nearly everything you have done 😂😂 thanks for the reply man 👍

[@chosenn657]

i have an mk5 06 plate sri + 1.8 , will vxr exhausts fit on it ? or can someone recommend an exhaust system not tryna go crazy was gna delete the back muffler but the tip would’ve came off too

[@BIGHUS]

I’m not sure about the VXR exhaust but I know that you can get a sports back muffler that would have a sporty sound but not too crazy and will look like the genuine astra chrome tip exhaust. If you lookout for hornet sports exhaust for mk5 astra on Ebay you should find some there and watch the reviews of the exhaust on youtube. Hope this helped :)

[@loeb1]

Yes vxr exhaust will fit but needs some work to fit...i have see some on estate and van, hatchback

[@zacfensome9245]

what about a heat shield?

[@Silkyrayhimself]

2:32 I swear you were gonna say "there for we're fucker" ahah

[@thefreedomguyuk]

You do need a remapping, as you're running underfueled with that pod filter. Lean mixture can wreck your engine!

[@BIGHUS]

Appreciate the feedback buddy however I sold the car but I went back to stock when I sold it 👍

[@1977saj]

Awesome 😊

[@ashman9425]

Doesn't it affect performance etc due to it being installed been told few good an bad things bout doing this man

[@BIGHUS]

Ashman 94 From my experience, these air filters are very good and I would Highly Recommend it. It improves the performance and mpg. It also increases the bhp by 3-5 hp believe it or not. Hope this helped mate

[@ashman9425]

@@BIGHUS might have to give it a try.. Did you get a re map before installing? Cheers for getting back to me man 👍

[@BIGHUS]

No I haven’t + No problem man👍

[@madman8708]

BIG HUS how much mpg you getting out of it from the filter

[@warriorharj79]

Hey man have you had any problems with this on the car?

[@BIGHUS]

Kingrai 15 Hey, still have this on the car and having no problems mate

[@warriorharj79]

@@BIGHUS Oh okay great because I'm planning on this for my Astra but am scared about water getting into it.

[@diogofernandes8708]

nice video man, i have a astra h 1.6 105hp and i put the KN airbox

[@BIGHUS]

Awesome dude!

[@TruScottishGuy]

The cone filter will NOT! Effect your MOT.

[@BIGHUS]

Yes, you are correct! Had my MOT and no problems with the air filter.

[@thefreedomguyuk]

No. But it WILL reduce your BHP unless you get a remap!

[@jdjxb123]

Is this gonna need a remap after?

[@BIGHUS]

Doesn’t need a re map for the sound but you can to re map it for more power. I don’t have any plans on re mapping my car as I do not plan on keeping this car for longer🤷🏽‍♂️

[@jdjxb123]

BIG HUS so if I put a new air filter on i wouldn't need to remap mine?

[@BIGHUS]

Rambo43 Yes no need for re map

[@SamRobinson-d6f]

No they do not need mapping it's a 1.8 n/a engine you'll achieve about 12 extra hp with a map lol

[@user-2uf2kr2c]

Bad method. Filter will suck Hot air as soon as engine/exhausting gets warm.

[@IonDragonRivenEUW]

What size is it? 70/80/90mm?

[@BIGHUS]

I’ve just connected it straight on the induction pipe on the Astra without having to use any adapters

[@thatguynath8119]

What size filter inlet do I need?

[@casiuu953]

70mm

[@letsrockza]

why? its adding hot air to the intake, making matters worse!!

[@СашаДр]

Sounds good but nothing good for an engine.

[@punkrock1989]

The difference in the sound is 1%. No point in doing this if you want a louder noise.

[@7302ab]

mpg better

[@markbradley9008]

Lose the beard dude

Beard gang😂💪🏽
