I could do with a new air filter on the 2.2 hdi as the one on there is rather dirty and is crushed on one side, i dont no weather to get another cone filter, if so what make?? or is it worth the extra money and getting an enclosed filter such as bmc cda??

bmc cda is overpriced in my opinion, such little again but very expensive.. standard box with panel filter would probably be the best for price and power gain tbh

Yeah I was thinking that too, there isn't an airbox on the car and don't no if it would be possible to put one on there as turbo is above the gear box

Yeah decent cone filter, haven't got many other options in that bay if memory serves. If you could add another cold air feed it would probably do some good, as i seem to remember it just had the standard trumpet and not much else..?

Get a decent green cotton...
You need a decent filter on that thing, it'll suck an incredible amount of air through what looks like a small inlet... Typical new age turbos...
