Yes I did. That's ok no worries. If I counted every mistake I made on a daily basis, I'd get nowhere. 
I believe it was Theodore Roosevelt who said; The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything.

They do not seem to have a website, just the FB page so no idea of availability/cost etc.
Might be a prototype (not liking some of the welds on the intake duct, they surely aren't finished off yet) but I do like the look of the airbox!!

Is that the one I've heard they've fitted to the Mark Trueno / Street FX WTAC car?
Hi guys!
I'm new here. So forgive the numerous questions over the next few weeks. Recently purchased my i30n performance and so far im loving it.
Read that the drop in pipercross direct replacement filter is still covered by hyundai warranty, so was interested in the change. Have read mixed reviews on the stock filter being just as good, if not better.
Advice welcomed!

You'll probably have to buy it directly from a dealership to maintain warranty. ( These have the N logo on the foam rather then the standard pipercross X and I'd imagine has its own Hyundai part number).
They barely make much difference tbh.
Cheers mate, I dont want be forking out unnecessary money when its not really needed. How about the forge induction kits. Again, same question, is it really beneficial or does the i30n already do a solid job in that department?

The more powerful / tuned cars in the UK all use standard airbox to get the figures. Induction kits do invalidate warranty but only give a little noise no performance gains. For the £300 or so they are (not looked guessing at costs) Its not for me.
Thanks Gents,
Think that answers my question, having had a Astra VXR before that was bodged beyond belief when i bought it, it was hard to tell what was making gains and what wasn't
For peace of mind on the warranty, it wont be a purchase ill be pursuing!
Thanks again for the help ![/QUOTE]
There are no real "unicorn" magic bolt on power mods for this car tbh.
Induction kits are for noise and maybe improved throttle response.
I haven't really seen any 3rd party prove/disprove any induction kit power claims from Forge, ITG,Pipercross etc on this platform so would not like to summise.
Getting better airflow into the airbox and out to the turbo certainly won't hurt so a lot have gone for the Velossa Tech inlet snorkel at the front and a Turbo elbow (+ a suitable intake pipe to connect it too) after the airbox.
Pretty much all this is in this very thread. But I appreciate its quite a long one......

Thanks buddy! really helps, ill have a read of this bible, im sure it contains all the info i need!
Just noticed that Ramair now have a filter available. Looking at the end cap it seems like they've come up with a way of locating it nicely.

That looks like it should fit nice!
I was looking at the Pipercross drop in filter to keep the warranty - However UK Hyundai are useless for accessories for the i30N & the readily available Pipercross (PX1999) isn't approved to keep the warranty but the Hyundai sold one with the 'N' logo (PX1999HYU - 9999Z057141) is, except you can't get them in the UK.. Biggest joke is, it's made in the UK as well!!

although I agree with you that it doesn't make sense, just as a heads-up:
The N branded filter is NOT the same unit as the PX1999 from Pipercross. The N one is actually larger in terms of filter size and inner diameter.
Всем привет, подскажите какой холодный воздухозаборник или фильтр поставить, чтобы добиться сильного усиления звука (шума всасывания)? Но в то же время, чтобы он хорошо очищал воздух.
Translation:
Hello everyone, tell me what cold air intake or filter to put in order to achieve a strong amplification of sound (noise suction)? But at the same time, so that it cleanes the air well.

I've added the google translated version of your question to your post. Please only answer in English in the international section of the forum so the other members are able to follow the conversation.
Regarding your question:
What you are asking is somewhat contradicting, since a good filter removes sound.
If sound is more important to you, consider a K&N Filter.
If filtering is more important to you, consider a Pipercross Filter.
These are the two replacement filters I have experience with in person. There are more filters out there, but I don't know enough about them.
For cold air intakes, you can choose whatever you want, by just removing the air filter box the sound difference is already astonishing, no matter which CAI you choose to use. Just be aware of the heat surge these may introduce.
I understand correctly that if you put a zero resistance pipercross filter, the sound will change with the lid closed?
This is most annoying... as I have just bought and fitted the PX1999 this weekend!That looks like it should fit nice!

I thought it was the same except for logo, and it would maintain the warranty.
