i got a k&n cone it sounds ok at top revs, but it aint that much different from standard to be honest. i got mine off a mate but your gona be looking at £50-£65 in a shop or online. its well worth it thow as u can wash and re-oil them loads before they need replacing, aslong as its done properly that is. plus it looks the badgers!!.

aye i had a k&n on my last car, really nice sound and looked top
been looking round though and i think they only make a 57i kit for the EFi version, whereas mine is MFi
pipercross do one for mine though so it might just have to be that
thanks for the post

why would i waste my time replying if you cant get one , if you dont have a clue what your talking about dont give out advice. dumd arse's like you send people down the wrong parth. imagine if you were the first reply back to this post. the guy could of thought that the part didnt exsist given up lookin then given up on his ford coz he couldnt do to it what he wanted. left it on his drive until it roted away, then have to scrap it. all because u dont know what your talkin about!! do u realy want the death of a already diein bread on your hands!!!

I tried fitting a 57i induction to kit to my Mk XR3i and it don't fit
To be honest, you're not gonna see that much of an improvement fitting a pipercross kit, may be better to drill some holes in the airbox and fitting a k&n panel filter.

As seen on the picture from the link, the "open" filter from Pipercross replaces the whole filter box. And it's not a cone one.
Many companies used to sell this open filter for the K-Jetronic. But there are not many available these days

From my experience with both engines, you can buy a K&N 57i for the EFi engine and maybe a pipercross, but with the MFi you can only buy the pipercross item as shown below. Unless another company has started making other kits, then this is all there is available.

Hope that helps...

managed to pick one of the above up 2nd hand off ebay, couldn't believe my luck
shed some blood fitting it but got there in the end. not sure about power gains but it definitely rumbles more at low revs and roars a lot louder high up! which is mainly what i was after
thanks for the help/info guys
