Pipercross panel is the best choice, I have tried an induction kit but was not keen on it.

I've got an aluminium heatshield. You might lose power on a dyno but on the road I think it would be negligible.

hi-jacking here but when buying a cone filter what else do i need to have with it? (may be a dumb question) but do i need to get any piping with it? or does that come in the box.
