Default best air filter for the vauxhall vectra v6

Hello fellow enthusiast'.

I have been a member here for quite some time but I'm more of a reader than a writer.

However the time has come to break my VVON virginity-

What do you people think is the best air filter/ induction kit for the Vectra v6?

I've owned quite a few performance cars in my time but only just got hold of my current car (GSi) and looking for a few mods to help it breathe a bit more easily.

An induction kit if first on the agenda.

Pipercross Viper- You'll not regret it. Probably my fav mod if I'm honest. However BMC Filters are supposed to be equally as good too.

Personally the 3 pipe mod is crap get ride of it all together and just have a nice big direct air feed to you box or Cone,
I used to have a K&N and found on set of you get the loud sudden sucktion and nothing for that split second hence why i got ride,

As i have said you will not go wrong with a pipercross pannel filter

Personally I'm one for the genuine air filter only. If I really had to fit an air filter it would either be a BMC/Pipercross enclosed setup, or just a Pipercross panel filter which seemed to work well on our last 3.0.

N/A power for me the genuine panel filter wins, but I don't think I'll be able to keep my airbox with my engine plans for the '200.
