Just get a panel filter. The cone is obviously a cone. Have you asked Green what their 'motorsport' filter is?

I know that they do a huge range of custom sizings for motorsport use - i.e. when you basically have a power/air flow target that the filter must be capable of and physical dimensions are a secondary consideration because you're making the inlet tract up custom anyway.

Im using a green panel filter with no complaints, unless your gonna be looking for big power gains then a replacement panel filter is a sound choice, add to that alot of people swear by green panel filters in their scoob's

The cleaning kit cleans them up nicely. I've had my panel filter in 2 cars and covered about 50000 miles since it was first fitted to the first one.

I've had the green one in my Newage for around 2 years and modified bits and bats in that time. Its worked fine up to my current level (approx 360bhp)

The best way iv found is to put the required amount into a spray bottle and spray the cleaner liberally on the dirty side...leave to soak for 10mins or so then rinse off under the cold tap from the clean side(If you see what i mean!)
