The genuine air filter £10 ish from dealer at TC prices is very good, and considered better than any induction kit...

Gaskets... as in these: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4642440499&ru=http%3A%2F%2Fsearch.ebay.co.uk%3A80%2Fsearch%2Fsearch.dll%3Fcgiurl%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fcgi.ebay.co.uk%252Fws%252F%26fkr%3D1%26from%3DR8%26satitle%3D4642440499%2B%26category0%3D%26fvi%3D1

NOT recommended!

Genuine Vx are the way to go, along with the black sealant (part no.s in the guide).
I think the gasket sets are around £25 a side.

Yes they are a lot more, but with the Vx ones, you do the job once!  ;)
