If you do a search there's loads of posts covering this ,but I believe you have to buy a reducer for the filter to the maf

You will need a reducer the standard maf diameter is 70mm and the filter diameter is 80mm i got a 76-81mm for mine went over the maf and tightened up fine even with a 1mm clearance it was a pain to get the reducer on the filter end   :grin: Dom managed to fit an 80mm diameter reducer on  :laugh:

That's not a bad price although I haven't got a standard air filter on mine though I brought the car and it's got a piper x one on it if I'm honest I think I might just need the filter but I'm not going to be cheap on this If I do it then I will be doing it properly just thought I'd ask going to wait though till I got some dolla does it bring anymore power or stay the same

Looks a little long thay reducer. Not much room to play with when you got a short one.

I have a brand new one if you want to buy it as I bought 2. Its 80mm.

Needs a little persuation and lube/washing up liquid to get on but its doable.
