The airbox looks exactly the same in both cars, so I would say they are the same. I would not waste your money as the Ford paper filter, filters better. If you put a 2nd CAI in, this will make a bigger difference.

I will be installing a F6 CAI into mine on Saturday.

I don't think that the CAI or the filter had any in the seat of the pants gain when installed on my car. I would be putting my money towards an edit and tune. :roflmbo:

1kw at the rear wheels is bugger all and would never be felt driving in the real world. That's not to discredit it though, as you still did get a gain. Have you done any other CAI modifications? I would think that the filter would compliment any additional mods done in this area more than it would if the intak it standard.

Was getting a power figure for car , before I start doing my mods . Whilst on the dyno I had a K&N in the boot I bout earlier in the day . Thought id put it in and test to prove that a K&N was a good filter .

Mainly bought it so that it will last through at least the next few services . Car is still rock stock , but not for long . I am aiming for apporx 500kws at the wheels eventually .

Safe your money. Keep your Factory Filter.

Have you ever looked through a K&N filter ............ scary !!!!

It may keep Bugs out, but not fine Dust.

I agree that the K&N and BMC filters DO NOT filter as good as the factory one.

While the aftermarket filters can give you a gain, it is at the sacrifice of good filtering. Ford have also been known to be a bit narky about aftermarket filters.
