Ebay kits are ok but use a better cone filter or if you can stretch to it then a Carbonio kit is awesome.

Cone filters have been shown to give to best gains. R-Tech do a heat shield and piperX filter for £120. Niki uses this as it's what he got the best gains on.

Its meant to increase effiancy of a air filter by optimising the flow of air. It looks like a metal squished funnel adaptor  :grin:
