Depends what filter it is. Not that it will make much of a difference.

It really wont, as you'll still be going through a 138 manifold which wont make much differwnce either

Just fitting an air filter/induction kit isnt really going to make much difference by its self anyway, they only come into their own when in addition to other mods, exhaust, cams etc .
Fit an induction kit if you want the noise, most uprated panel filters are just as free flowing when you get rid of the standard air feeds and use a more direct one.

Mate take Lee's word for it as the guy know's what he is talking about . I fitted and induction kit to my 138 and it sounded awesome and the car responded better too . Once you do the exhaust the car will respond even better and you will find that down changing will be able to be done earlier with better results . My next step is to get an SS manifold witch should change the entire acceleration of the car .
Here is my induction kit but I am gonna be changing the blue rubber hose soon .
