Hi,
I notice that most members' cars have a cone filter fitted. I picked up an unbranded burgandy red cone filter for a couple of pounds at my local scrappy. It looks brand new. Considering using it on my Celica, but does it really make a difference over the stock Toyota panel filter? Perhaps I should look at a K&N panel filter to go in the stock air filter box? Also, being in the UK and as my Celica is my daily drive, the engine bay gets quite damp, salty and grubby. How do cone filters cope with water and dirt build-up? Should I be looking to box the cone filter in a similar way to the stock air filter box? Finally, where is a good place to fit a mass air flow sensor with the stock setup and with the cone filter fitted?

THIS LINK WILL GIVE YOU ALL YOUR ANSWERS.
http://www.6gc.net/index.php?action=information&itu=11 If I were you, go for the K&N Drop In Filter. Esp with your situation with dirtiness of your engine bay. My 2 cents. --------------------  |
