   sorry for stupid question, but wasn't sure if the standard/original air filter for a mk 2 vtr is supposed to be a long thin, square, or cylinder shaped one. thanks

   'J' shaped pipe with a flex in the middle linked up to the air box which is hooked up from the fan area to the throttle body if i remember correctly.

   If it's the 3 plug silver top engine it should have a square filter with the original air box.

   Two different ones for the mk2!
   
   Pre 2001 90 bhp has a filter that looks like a toilet roll!
   Post 2001 98 bhp has a flat panel.
