Sound a little narrow too - think the standard width is 8.5 inches with a 245mm wide tyre on 18 inch wheels.
Can someone confirm?
Cheers.

Don't badge it incorrectly, just copy the R26R side decals, but with R26 logo... that'll look

Yep... that'll be a marked improvement on the standard unit
I went for the Cosworth one... but have a K & N panel in my Disco...and the difference was quite instant.

Anyone else experiencing the air intake tube popping of the airbox?
Mine's come off 5 times in the last month, one time Dunc from Dynamix re-positioned it and tightened it... only for it to be off again a week later...so it's not me!
Trouble is when it pops off, it's drawing un-filtered hot air from the engine bay... which isn't ideal!

and un-metered air which is possibly worse as it will make it run lean.
Sounds daft but clean the inside of the pipe and spray hairspray on it - tighten the jubilee and with a little heat from the engine it will set solid and not budge.
