One of the best filters on the market is Hastings. If you can't find these then Wix is also a good filter.

In a PSD, air filtration is not an area where you want to cut corners. You definitely don't want to use a cheap-o filter just to save a couple bucks when you are trying to protect a $5000 engine. I would recommend at least a good Motorcraft air filter for your stock system, and serious consideration of upgrading to an AIS or Tymar system. Do a search for these and read all about how they work. The only filters I remember reading bad comments about are Fram and K&N. You might want to stay away from these.........

Benefits include better filtration (depending on the intake) and the turbo will spool up faster. My Tymar cost me $109.
