there wont be heatsoak issues, get a hige cone filter, and they are not a v5 engine lol

I never said they were.

Interesting you say there won't be heatsoak issues, as when I first asked about fitting an induction kit I was told that if I fitted anything other than the AMS Elevate I'd have heatsoak issues, and it wasn't worth it.

I've monitored temps in my engine bay for 18 months, any heatsoak will be gone in less than half a mile of driving.

told by who? cos there will be a hundred people on here that will tell you that you won't, ive ran a pipercross group a cone for over 18 months and never had a problem without a shield too

You will have heatsoak at standstill. It won't cause "problems" but it will exist.

It will clear quickly when on the move, as Claymore says.

The S60R already has a cylinder-type high-throughput filter (as you probably know).

Having re-read the original thread:

I think I may have mis-understood, will definitely be looking for an induction kit or K&N filter now.
