ITG is the way to go for induction kits.
Used by top F1 teams and comes in carbon fibre too (not the filtering bit - that's foam)

They do 'yota yet?
I believe the Reverie includes a K&N element, who aren't exactly unknown either

Cool. Second you on the ITG then - top kit (top price, but if you're looking at Reverie then that isn't much of an issue)

Yeah - not cheap, but it's one of those items that once purchased should never need replacing - so go for the best you can afford. (or not afford as the case may be

)

My thoughts exactly - ITG winging its way to my car in a week or so

Focus ST estate, i3s and more pushbikes than strictly necessary.
....did i ever tell you about the Evora and VX220 i used to own?

I don't think that ITG have a kit for the MY '06 cars yet.
I spoke with Simon from PTP a few weeks ago and he advised the 06 cars needed different brackets which were under development. I've not heard anything from them to confirm if the new kit is now available, but maybe time to give him a call again.

Derek,
Good luck - Simon left PTP well over a month ago.
New guys is called Richard and I had to explain to him what an IACV was!
Seems nice enough if not that gened up on engine components

Didn't know he was going. Simon was great - he really knew his products and was as much an enthusiast as sales man.

You could try ITG themselves - I found them to be really helpful when i emailed them
