Try www.potn.com for the filter.

Post a pic and someone will be able to tell you dude! Chances are it's an SPi though...

You see the airbox .... as the big black pipe works towards the back of the engine bay, does it go into. ....

1- Black round plastic circular thing?
2- Rectangular metal thing?

1= SPi
2= MPi

got it. slightly gutted tho.

checked on the vin plate for the engine code - X16 SZR
was informed this is the engine code for the puny SPI

now I need to fit MPI parts to it before doing any further engine mods.
