XE owners, can you please post some pictures of your pipework i.e. from the throttle body to air filter?

I'm having a mare with it at the moment and I would like to know what you guys use?

Ah ha

Proper induction hose from MAF to filter - do you know the diameter of that by any chance?

What about the dinky from the powercap to the MAF, where did that come from?

No idea about the diameter of the induction hose, get in contact with roose motorsport, they should know.

The "dinky" came from ebay. I just typed in silicone reducer, think the diameter of that is 4" to 2".

The filter I have keeps falling off the end of my pipe

And, I'm wondering what to do once I get a proper powercap and not a huge fuck off thing

Get a filter with the same diameter as your pipe then or get reducers

As for when you get your power cap you will need THISfor between the powercap and afm

The pipes that came with my engine

If you have the donut then thats all you need from the poercap to afm then just the induction hose from the afm to the filter, measure the diameters and get reduces to suit

So just put the MAF on the dohnut, then the induction hose from there down to the filter? Is that what you're saying?
