JR 70mm cone filter and a 90 degree so cone sits in the bottom half of your air box.

I was in the same boat after I fitted my forge tip. Done a bit of research on various forums and harassed 9N3 Turbo lol

The jetex filter gets a good review with the seat boys :) apparently the jetex filters give high MAF readings.

In the end I stuck with my seat cupra intake and pipercross panel filter which was again recommended by Badger 5 in terms of gaining performance.
I gave it a good clean last week and the car feels alive again.

I am going to further modify my airbox by smoothing the inside of it as the TT boys recommend.

Point to note with open filters is, there will be an issue of heat soak as the engine bay will run hot. But as 9N3 Turbo suggested by inserting
the cone filter into the bottom of the airbox and run a 90 degree pipe.

Getting stage 2 also soon!

I´m also considering the airbox and 90 degree, I already have PD160 Seat Intake and panelfilter from K/N installed.

Is there any big difference or just the looks and sound from DV maybe?

Sorry for hijack.
