Cone air filter fitment
I have recently purchased a GRP A K&N cone for the cossie, just after some tips on fitment, I have a new of boost pipes from roose and the top turbo one to the cone requires some trimming, how much though? where abouts should the filter sit in the space?

There ya go mate....when you fit it, just put some sort of double sided foam tape under the filter as it will rub thru your paint otherwise.
