I've got a cone filter on my XE at the minute and don't like it.
What pipe do people use between the 1.2 aribox and AFM as the ID are different sizes?

Well if you have it de-restricted and an up rated panel filter its gonna work the same as pretty much any enclosed aftermarket filter...

Cheers Ste.
I'll give that a bash after my holidays. I'll spend more time on mine though and get it looking pretty on the outside.
