(Mine is stock as far as I'm aware, I've not touched it at least, and the car was stock when bought).I'd heard somewhere I'd have to tune it, can't remember if it was from a friend or somewhere online.Kinda spewing I bought the K&N Panel filter today then haha, ah well, I'll leave it with the stock airbox for now.With regard to the vacuum hose. It appears to be fairly long, do I just cable tie it to something to keep it off of things/out of the way after putting a screw and hose clamp on it?And out of interest, what does the vacuum hose do?

I think its a 8mm screw Not sure how loud it will be without a pod...but hopefully doesn't sound too bad.Good luck!

m1rkz Member 114 Member For: 12y 6m Gender: Male Location: Perth Posted 06/04/15 09:39 AM Share Posted 06/04/15 09:39 AM Used a flat end screw. I'm honestly not sure there's reason to put a clamp on it, considering there's no clamp on the BOV etc. If it was going to blow it out the end or something which I don't think it will there'd be a clamp on the bov too.The screw is in there securely though, doesn't seem to be any issues, but will keep an eye on it.
