Great idea! I've ordered all the parts for this and will attempt to fit on my edition 30, i'll post some pics when done. Mine came to £90 with Ram air filter.

Im pretty sure it was this one mate -

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RAMAIR-UNIVERSAL-AIR-FILTER-90mm-NECK-ALUMINIUM-INDUCTION-INTAKE-ON-SALE-NOW/350836324889?rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222002%26algo%3DSIC.FIT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D74%26meid%3D2696959885302224558%26pid%3D100005%26prg%3D1048%26rk%3D3%26rkt%3D4%26sd%3D271121510501%26

I made them an offer of £40 and they accepted   :happy2:

Here's mine fitted -



Just got to make some brackets to secure the pipework and finish modifying the engine cover and paint it.

They're not that loud to be honest. Mine does suck a little on boost and dumps back through the filter. I haven't got a video though sorry mate.

what diameter is the turbo pipe, just thinking about getting a silicone hose from the turbo and not having to butcher the maf housing so I can reuse the engine cover if I need to.

Ok so I have built mine but decided to make an enclosed version.

Here is a close up of the maf housing cut out.



And here is the filter assembled.

Just need to find the time to fit it to the car.
