Default New S70 T5 owner got a question

Hi all


I just purchased my first S70 T5 (The one in my profile and gallery) I paid £1700 which I think was O.k.? I have had C70 T5's in the past.


My question is, it has an Evo Air Intake on it which makes a nice sound when you change gear but I think it would be better for the engine if I put the panel filter on as it is all in the boot, what do you guys think? This car is supposed to be tuned to 280BHP but doesn't feel like it to me, could this be the aftermarket filter?


Thanks


John

Probably a weak turbo or boost leak somewhere.
