Gen 5 - Induction kit

I have been toying with the idea of fitting an induction kit to my gen 5 2.2vti
I tried a couple of kits on my old EP3, it was the sound they made that made it addictive, rather than any extra (if any) performance
Any suggestions on what I should go for ?
Panel filter ?
proper induction kit ?
or, stick to standard ?
Thanks in advance

Popular choice is a type s/H22a8 airbox with a panel filter. It's quite hard to get hold of although they do pop up every now and then.
AEM v2 is the popular choice for induction kits

If anyone has the standard lower airbox (in the wing/bumper area) id like one - mines been removed and the extra noise is just annoying.

I’ve been throwing the resonator box in the bin for all the Prelude’s I’ve had..

Pretty sure I have one from one of my breakers - I'll check.

I'll go for the AEM V2 I think, I did enquire about someone breaking a type s 2.2, however, the air intake hose, although different to mine, didn't appear to be the same as the jdm type s' that I have seen pictured

What induction did you use in the end? Looks like aem V2 but longer than what I've seen. And did you notice any nice difference in sound/response?
