Harr1s, thats what I have heard too, stick with the original setup with a straight panel replacement IMHO.

It depends what car you have if it is a mk3 8v with a hitachi or semens airflow sensor K&N dont make them but piper cross do the two airflow sensors are the same just different names, they are run by the same company
