Hi, my NA came with a K&N cone filter fitted when I bought it. I’m looking at changing back to a standard airbox but I’m not sure what bits I will need.

The only bracket I can see currently is a bent L shape.

Does the standard box have other brackets? Does it even use the L shape one or is that just for the cone filter? Does it need any reducers or other pipe work?

I appreciate it’s not a clear question, but having not seen a standard set up I’m not sure if just buying an airbox is going to be sufficient for me to complete the job. Have had a good search on here but without much luck.

Thanks for any help.

There is second bracket not shown on above link, to fasten the rear left hand side of the box. But usually it's not removed from the car.

I have a Saab airbox that fits and was a popular upgrade. I was going to fit it but have gone down the ITG filter route with Batman.

 

Have it available for £20 plus postage...  I bought it 2nd hand off here...

Hi. I'd take the Saab box off you if no other takers

Thanks everyone. Have sourced an airbox and got it fitted. Didn’t need any extra parts, just the airbox itself. Diagram was a big help. Thanks.
