I've got the ITG Twin Trumpet Filter from pugspares which does the job perfectly.

I think if you have the money.

 

K&N, are the way to go. With life long guarentee.

 

And look very good, and can be washed.

 

Cost me £108 from Burton Power for 100mm ones.

Consider using a single or one piece filter with a backing plate as this aids in keeping some balance with the carbs ,as you know the carbs are moving all the time on the mounts .

 

 

the piper cross foam set up looks tidy or go for the carbon airbox like Jon mergies as these are proven to really work well on the 205 mi .

K&N's are a brilliant anti theft device for you Webers, as they are an art to get on an off.

 

How do the airbox's work, I read some crap article about it, but it never explained why. How does boxing it in a chamber, but a positive pressure on the system, especially when you are putting one filter on, that must be smaller than a set of K&N's.

 

Cheers

Glad no one has suggested filter socks yet cause the zap power! Ideally just something like a pipercross or ITG foam filter with backing plate is best I'd say :)

Another vote for ITG. They can flow air through the top unlike K&N's

Eh?

 

I thought foam was crap, even if they can flow through the top, you cant beat the flow through the sides?

K&N's are the one's you want.

 

An airbox if you can get one to fit and flow smoothly is preferable.
