Alright folks, Any top tips on air filters or any recommendations for filters? Also are the 3" air filter to turbo hoses a good investment? Thanks

I like the BSR Optiflow kit myself. Awesome sound and looks good.

I'm selling my AMS system it comes with a brand new blue cotton filter from Jetex (only fitted to the car for 2 months and NOT oiled). For the record, they do crack in certain places, more split than crack! However, I stripped mine bare and had all the splits professionally repaired by a sign writing company using resins and glues not available to the public. They did an incredible job and now it is much stronger than before. AFAIK, it's better than new! I then primed, painted and rebadged it as well as fitting new rubber seal. Not sure how much I want for it, but if you visit the Elevate site you can certainly make me an offer, bearing in mind that I will have saved you nearly £80 in shipping and import tax. Incredible induction noise and looks great too! Have a look in my project thread and you'll find a video of it on my car and the noise on cold start :)

The elevate ams are available in the UK with jwr racing Your be best off with the likes of a pipercross filter in the Airbox. Do88 run a 3.25" intake pipe. And if you wanted maybe to another cold feed under the Airbus to the fog grill...
