Morph money aint the issue as you could buy the GGR cool air induction system at around £400 which is ok or you can spend £200 on the K&N Gen 2 induction kit which will kick the GGR ones ass that is the one i have fitted on mine and it will give about 12 to 16 BHP increase there is not alot out there that is any better but remember after fitting it it will take at least 100 to 150 miles for the ECU to get used to the additional airflow so it may stall every now and again but this problem goes away after a while.

Hope this is helpful
