Hello mate im runing a pipercross panel cost about £35 i think.
If your near Essex give Shaun at AmD a ring.
Have you thought about smoothing the airbox aswell its well worth it

 

[Sulli]

Thanks
I noticed someone had said about smoothing the airbox on a search. Is that worth doing? I remember drilling the airbox in an Astra Gsi I had years ago - did bugger all.

Yes mate best mod for the money
Smooth the inside, top and bottom and remove o/e feed pipe and replace with 3" feed pipe

I got my Green filter from Bill - cheers Bill.
Do I need to oil it before fitting, or just when I clean it in a few months?
Here#s a good testimonial for Green filters: http://youtube.com/watch?v=YPh2tEoM__0

Not sure how scientific, but looks good!

I wouldnt oil it mate.
Others might say its ok but the oil can mess up the MAF

Should come already to fit,when i had mine it was lightly oiled and just fitted it straight in,it was cleaned at every service,never had any issues with it.

I got a green one from Badger 5 (bill). I replaced the jabba induction kit for it, and it is now smoother and more responsive too.
