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 would be putting my money towards an edit and tune.

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.

KW CONNER Member 52 Member For: 18y 25d Location: Cessnock Posted 05/05/07 03:15 PM Share Posted 05/05/07 03:15 PM 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 .

Ford have also been known to be a bit narky about aftermarket filters.
