I have a different engine so cant comment on the 1.6

However when I swapped my air box for a K&N filter on previous car and it was then "wooshing". So it might be worth checking that there is no gaps, loose connections from the air filter which might be sucking in more air from somewhere.

Sometimes pipes mysteriously dead end... maybe put out a request for someone with same engine to take a pic and see if its the same?
