As above, I have an apexi air filter. Pleased with it appart from the fact that the re-circ valve now sounds like a dump valve, and I'm not a big fan.

Any ideas for making it quieter?

Hi mate, you'll have to go down the standard airbox route I'm afraid. Like you, I'm not a fan either \:\(

I'm going to try and mount the filter using a custom SIP, and then kind of enclose the filter in the bumper using a plastic cover. I'll post up some pics if there is any noticable improvments in chav reduction.
