Call ITG directly as they do make them for the Mk6 (they borrowed my car to dyno test the difference between the OEM paper and there pro filter), they are exactly the same design as the old Escort XR3i filter   :nerd: :grin:

VW Racing can supply one too - looks like a Pipercross made filter, but VWR branded.

Dry foam, personally won't run one but do seam to produce good results.

Mine isn't dry - it's oiled, for sure.
