Hi guys this is a good thread but may I ask do you need to tweek any map on The car for the increase in air flow or does the ecu have enough parameters to adjust fuel and timing for this increase and will prolonged get use cause any problems for the maf I assume you don't use oiled filters as that just trashes mafs


Also is there a heat shield available to stop any heat soak

Jabba do a kit with heat shield included. I think it's generally known that these kits don't give any significant gains over a standard airbox and in some cases have reduced power. They do however, sound good! :)

Yh I found this too that most cone filters don't really do anything other than look good and sound good with the dv and turbo spool, I'd rather have something that benefits the car, does anyone know what power the factory air box is rated too. Has anyone gone down the route of inner wing filters, no chance of heat soak and if placed roughly where the Lcr 2nd ic is, as long as the water can't get in I wonder if that would make for better intake
