Thumbs up Spoon CAI and Filter

How much would you pay for the above combo including VAT and delivery? I'm not sure I want to go the whole hog and go for the N1 as well at this point, but I was thinking I could maybe spend

Why not get a MUZ and a K&N then you have more money for an exhaust?

Being a purist (or whore, you decide), I'd rather pair it with a Spoon filter none the less. The car only does about 10 miles a day on weekdays now, so I should be fine as far as muck is concerned.

Oh, and Mikey, you've got a deal.

I ran the Spoon filter with the snorkel for a while - the filter is superb for performance but not so sure about the impurities it lets into the engine. If you change the oil and filter every 3000 miles or 6 months, you'll be fine.

Oil change frequence makes no difference at all to accelerated bore wear due to lack of filtration.
