BMC?
even if you changed to a green / K&N panel filter, and sourced a cold air feed too; this could be a good idea?

Well if your going for looks and performance then prob the green is the best way to go. Although the BMC does look good too, depends on yourself really?

if you want looks and growl get an open one, i got one of these for my old car and it made it sound quite beefy. also i ordered from this site and it came the next day

If its purely for noise then you cant beat an open cone filter, cotton are normally slightly louder than foam or stainless steel.
Have a read of my Big induction thread - click on the link under my signature and check out www.performancecentre.co.uk for the best prices, www.Kam-Racing.com maybe able to match their prices but have alook anyway

Thanks mate, Ideally a little more response bottom end would be great, I have quite a noisy but nice sounding back box, just want more throat up front now
