I am wondering where can i purchase the filter in the picture below and how much it costs plus what samco hoses are fitted to that car? standard FRST or custom ones? andyblackFRST is most probably the man in the know on that one. Thanks craig

Mine came from ML Developments when I had my engine rebuild.

Sounds really nice on acceleration as well....

The filter is on a T3 conversion, the one used is a SFS hose. a standard samco air filter hose can be used also.

Ok well we got the the 45 degree bend pipe with a 60mm internal diameter from a company called Merlin Motorsport which graham from GRS Motorsport put me in contact with! Top bloke is graham!!! and we got a Group A K&N air filter with trumpet from Woodford Garage Motorsport. I did speak to Jay at X-Factor and he was extremely helpful but Woodford were £25 cheaper than X-factor for the price of the filter
