    The K & N cone that I've just fitted to Gul has a rubber adapter which I've fitted directly to the maf, so I have no hose between them. The cone is sitting on top of the bottom part of the airbox, but have I done right?

    That's exactly how mine is on both cars with cones fitted. Just a rubber adapter fitted directly to the maf, and the cone fitted to that.
