You can use a K&N RC-3250 filter. Its bigger than the standard cone from them, but you might need to remove some of the inner neck to make it fit over the FRST piping. I carefully used a knife then used some lubrication to help it on :wink:

Why do you want a bigger filter. Never understood this fascination with putting massive filters on.

Mine runs the stock sized FRST cone despite being converted to T3, does the job a treat and doesn't waste engine bay space

didn't want to create any new topic, so asking here:
many of you on FRST use cone filter instead of original air box with many small hoses coming to it.
so how you manage all those hoses on cone filter, of course you could create an insert from metal pipe, to connect all of them. but looking at the engine pics here in forum, have noticed only few connectins made to it.and also where is turbo boost control valve placed, as it originally is situated on filter box.
so if any could put some small guide or pictures, that would be nice.
