    Most people go for BIG K&N filters, personally i went for Apexi as they are slightly shorter and not need oiling

    Depends what your after though.

    There is loads of thread on here discussing what Air/panel filters people have used.
    Just have a search


    Cheers.

        Apexi or HKS but you need a cold air feed and heat shield from the turbo.

        Quite a few people have gone back to stock air boxes as the S2 isn't very tolerant of induction filters drawing in hot air.

          Yep,
          as jamo said it can be worse than an air box. I get lots of hot air in traffic but when i moving its perfect, this is what i have done.
          It will be changing soon :mischeif:

                  Don't use an oiled air filter it ******s up the MAF, RS2 airbox is the preffered mod

                    Straight from the Horses mouth.

                    If it is good enough for Porsche and Audi, it is good enough for me.

                    I think in general Cone filters are for drag racing and Max power.

                      Only use something else when you pyhsically cannot fit the airbox, tubular manifold etc.

                        I've got Apexi to go in the car but it's going to be boxed in and fed from the grill (aux rad removed).

                            Upper and lower halfs, the clips to hold it together and the heat shields.
