Hello Jack

Well I didn't fit it like a normal person would. If you fit it how most people do, the engine will suck in warm oil. Also you will loose the volume of air kept in the air box. You need this as it was designed by the Renault engineers for optimum performance from the car.
I literally bolted the air filter to the end of the air box and removed the internal paper filter element. Then got a very large air feed pipe to it.

I have now however changed over to a replacement K&N Panel filter and have had allot better results.

Good luck
Damian
