Want to replace Pipercross Cone Filter

[DUBS73P]

Just got the 182, everything is standard bar the Pipercross cone at the moment, not a fan of cone filters, makes a fairly decent noise but if its down on power its not really any use to me.

Completely new to all performance mods so i have no idea which filters i should be looking at, Either the standard box with a decent panel filter or an induction kit, or anything else

Heres the current filter:

Cheers

Standard airbox will be fine mate.

Standard box with std paper filter will be better than that. My IK ruined the throttle response.

The aftermarket panel filters are only good cos you can clean them rather than replace like the paper filters if you want to splash out £30 or so.

For the noise I just disconnected the CAF pipes to the std airbox - although I'm sure someone will tell me it's a bad idea to do that! Can't see the harm though, the air still gets filtered.

A ph1 172 airbox fits with a bit of a squeeze, and has been known to get a few more bhp than the ph2 airbox mate, if that helps

hmm, I'm not so sure. The standard ph1 elbow is definitely worse than the ph2. If you use one, get a silicon elbow

Good point danny, if you were going to go with a Ph1 box, then a silicone elbow would compliment it
