As above, im looking for a new filter or induction kit, but being quite new to these cars i don't know which is best or where the best place to get it from.
I've used the search but cant find what i'm looking for. If you guys can help me it would be appreciated.
Ill spend an amount of money but not the amount that the Mugen one is for example.
K&N Gen2 FIPK. It's cheap and makes a nice sound. None of the CAI kits really produce the goods in terms of power so it's not worth spending huge sums of money on.

Great mod, but dont expect any power gains, just do it for the noise!
Won't do it just for noise, can't justify the cash to be honest.
Not exactly expecting much more power, but looking for more efficiency, smoother and crisper throttle response and something to compliment my Mugen exhaust and stainless exhaust manifold.
If i can get a filter to do that then it's worth the money...and then the noise would be a bonus
HKS state that engine power is directly related to the amount of air an engine can take in and expel. Therefore, one of the easiest and least expensive ways to increase the horsepower of any engine is to improve the airflow into the cylinders
thats only true if what you have is restrictive, it makes no difference if your filter can flow twice as much as the OEM if the OEM is flowing more than the engine requires, The OEM filter is a good one look at the two base plates the rubber one is a very well known brand cotton filter look at the transition compared to the smooth flowing version on the right thats an oem one
The only problem with the OEM is it sucks warm air in, do like AJs-s2k suggests and you have as good if not better than a lot of aftermarket systems
my suggestion for top set up on NA
smooth wall samco induction pipe
stripped out oem air box with resonator chamber removed
snorkel
3" cold air feed to box
i know its not to everyones taste but i honestly believe this would stack up against most aftermarket systems
