Panel filter is your best bet, you wont have to change/adjust anything as the standard induction pipework is good for over 400bhp (unlike classics etc) so a good quality dry filter is your best (and cheapest) bet.

You have a choice, I use an STI panel filter but its not cheap (but very good ) you can use cosworth, green, K&n etc.

Hi Tony you say the standard air box with upgraded filter is good for over 400 bhp . Do you know how much over 400 the air box can be pushed to ? Is it capable to flow enough air for 430 - 450 bhp ?
