SS Inductions make probably the biggest you'll be able to buy.
Otherwise an EL GT or AU3 XR8 snorkel will be the next best option.

I think the Aunger snorkels mouth is bigger and the snorkel is cheaper. I don't know who has a larger entery point into the air box though... |

Haven't seen the Aunger ones, but the SS ones the whole snorkel is big enough to get your arm all the way into the airbox. The airbox requires a larger hole be cut to fit the snorkel.

The Aunger also requires the mod to the box for the larger hole. And as I said the mouth is larger. Dunno I guess it's a much of a muchness as in reality I'd be sure that a AU Tickford snorkel would provide enough flow for our near stock 6 bangers and at a fraction of the cost. |

It doesn't seal properly and lets in hot air from the engine bay. it also looks and feels cheap and nasty |

aunger intake is s**t for money, don't bother. I've inspected one before & I've notice on some section is less then one mil thick. give it time & they will brittle from the heat & start cracking.
I'll take a picture of my supplementary intake pipe from the airbow to the opening between the radiator & head lights. it works cause it leaves a distinct round dirty circle on the filter every time when its serviced. plus its high enough it doesn't get a gulp of water if you drive over a puddle. some nasty damage there mate!
