can't justify buying an intercooler to get a free air filter Phil, joanne will never go for it :lol:
where can you get the ITG filter from seperately..
Have you put your pics from saturday in your gallery, i need a new avatar now?

perhaps you're looking at it the wrong way round, what you're actually doing is buying a really good air filter and getting a free intercooler upgrade with it

just do the fuel pump tweak first - you ll get some extra performance ( and maybe a little smoke) without spending out on an intercooler.  

then tweak it more when u get an intercooler.

I put a K&N filter in and didnt notice much if any difference at all.

spose if u run without a filter thats about as good as it ever gonna get with a filter mod over standard.
