ebay ones wont be genuine bosch, dont buy one of them, i did and it didnt work right, when i measured the maf readings they were all over the place through out the rev range, and as the maf readings directly affect your bhp then you need to make sure you get a genuine one

you have to oil them otherwise it will allow fine dust through etc. Just dont oil it too much add a little at a time and dry off any excess

I meant it looks very nice, but the looks would benefit from a battery cover, i.e it would look better lol. or just a nice plain black battery like a de-stickered GO battery from Vaux on trade club

it was already modified with a crappy green cotton filter, i wanted something better than that so got this.
if it wouldve had the standard airbox i wouldve left it
the cone induction kit was too loud and embaressing
