Closed induction kit.

if panel filter or induction kit are your two options then a panel filter, however as jamesp24 said best gains sem to be from the enclosed induction kits like maxogen/vipers but cost is quite a bit more.

i have added an itg panel filter to my car and happy with it.

ITG panel is £40 , ITG Maxogen is £ 300-400

Maxogen is better , but so it should be!

Maxogen/BMC if your planning lots of engine upgrades

I've got an ITG induction kit (open style) with a cold air feed onto it and it sounds awesome!! Not noticed any improvements performance wise but then you never really do with a filter other than the 'placebo' affect lol.

However, in the process of making up a cold air box for it which should help a little.

Will have the benefits of the ope filter without sucking in hot air and all for the sum of £50
