I was just wondering about a panel filter upgrade to my R when i decided to look under the bonnet to check ease of fitment and condition of existing one etc.
this was when i noticed how small a diameter and how many twists the air has to take etc to get to the filter box.
Now usually i am not an induction fan as engine heat etc is an enemy of the air filter, but i just cannot see how the twists iand small diameter piping are any good for the air flow, nor how a conical filter would actually be detrimental in this engine layout.
So has anybody done any succsesfull mods in this area or am i looking at the layout wrong?
any advice or pointers would be helpfull
