This is interesting and will be good to see some figures.
I've just bought a dual cone Green Filter with a 45 degree alloy pipe and 80mm joiner.
I'm going to be removing my battery and having a second head light for a straighter flow for induction for the track.
The set up I'm buying is a good bit more expensive then the above but would doubt there is much flow difference.
If Jetex did a dual cone I would have gone that way as there cheaper.
The reason I want the dual cone is I'll direct this toward the front of the car and have other supplies to the sides of it from the OEM grill.
Nice one Jonnyjonjon for doing some investigation into other products, we need more people on SCN doing this.

This is what I wonder Willie, how much different would a dual-cone of a similar size be? As you say though, it's more expensive.

I really can't tell what one would be better.
TBH I doubt there will be much difference.
It's the top one I've gone for from Bill
My car is unmapped so perhaps not the best car to test this on.
I have several logs with my BMC CDA on with various other mods.
I'll do some logs with this one and see if there is a difference.
I'm betting that fitting the extension will help things too as this will straighten the air flow before it goes through the MAF thus allowing us to remove the mesh infront of the MAF and hopefully increasing the g/s.
My car will end up mapped before next summer so will see what I end up with then too.
This Cone should do me for a long time as I won't be at crazy BHP for a long time.
The other reason I bought this was it sounded SO GOOD on my 106 GTI, but it won't sound half as good on my LCR

Yup, this is the sort of thing that can be done at the SCN National meet or at a local meet swapping bits and pieces between cars and logging the results.
Would be good to see what's what.

The JETEX quotes that it is suitable for up to 400bhp, but I can't find out what that 200mm Green is recommended for. I think the 300mm might be too big?
Even with the battery out 300mm is going to be a tight fit.
I'm sure 200mm dual cone will be good enough

Cheers, Willie. I always think that if you're using products such as this it's good to let other people know your thoughts and experiences, good or bad. That's one of the great things about using forums such as SCN.
This 'p-clip' came yesterday for me to try courtesy of john@forge.
Hopefully I'll get a permanent fixing sorted by the weekend so I can
get rid of the tie-wraps.
